This is a tabletop RPG event for the Sunday after next. 4-5 players.
It is Murder She Wrote : the RPG. Each player is an elderly lady who is incorrigible and clever at solving mysteries.
This could be a multi-session game. Because we can play out several mysteries over a few sessions to resolve an overarching dark plot.
I think this game has a very interesting mystery resolution mechanic. In that, no one knows what the solution to the mystery is until a threshold of clues have been gathered to allow a player to make a roll, and then the players figure it out.
Here is a blurb about the game:
Welcome to Brindlewood Bay. Home of the Murder Mavens mystery book club, a group of elderly women who frequently find themselves investigating (and solving!) real murder mysteries in Brindlewood Bay. The game is inspired by the TV show Murder, She Wrote, the works of H.P. Lovecraft, and other “cozy” crime drama and TV shows of the ’70s, ’80s, and ’90s.
Quietly hitting the Indie gaming scene, Brindlewood Bay has garnered quite the following as of late. While its rise in popularity has not been meteoric, it has steadily increased thanks to its use of the successful “Powered by the Apocalypse” (PbtA) game engine and the gaming scene being devoid of other similarly influenced games.
Here is an excellent write up:
