Seeking a well-deserved break from your latest misadventures, you decide to
splurge, treating yourself to the extravagant luxury of the most talked about
train of our time - the legendary Orient Express. Most unexpectedly, and rather
unfortunately, the holiday turns out to be short-lived. The train has barely
left Paris when word spreads that someone has just been murdered, and in the
most hideous manner...
Mystery Express is a whodunit deduction game from Days of Wonder. The murder
that takes place on the Orient Express incorporates 5 different elements
represented by a set of Crime cards. Players take on the role of one of 5
travelling characters, each who has their own special powers of deduction. The
player who figures out the who, what, when, where and why of the murder before
the end of the journey wins.
Designed by Antoine Bauza and Serge Laget, Mystery Express is an imaginative new
take on the classic deduction board game, made up of top-notch components and
unique, period-perfect illustrations.
