Hi,

so I think it is obvious that people like to play mystery style games. 3 games have really worked out using similar methods of gameplay. However, I've got to imagine people are going to start wanting more variety. The same idea of a murderer killing people while a sheriff searches will get old and stale.

What can game creators do to spice up this genre? What other mysteries can be created?

There has to be other crimes and mysteries that can be used. I'm just looking to see what ideas you guys are thinking of. Let's hear it.

I've been thinking about the board game Clue, however I don't think most board games have transferred over well. However, I'd love to see somebody try.

Instead of "Mysteries," call it Mystery.

I'm gonna start building a different version than this, I'll try to base it off of the other mystery games, but I'll add a little spice to it.
(Probably won't be that good due to my impatience and lack of building,scripting skill, but I'll try.)

Yeah, Board games require people to commit to sitting through the whole game.

someone losing in monopoly can just leave and come back to start a new round with no repercussions.

would be good to see a single player room escape game built in a universe or something.

What about..

Everyone is a detective who must find tracks and hints to find a criminal who stole something, while one person is a spy (someone who has a gun), to shoot the criminal, but the criminal has a knife. Not only that, but the detectives must help the spy out. Oh, and no one knows who the criminal is.

Random idea I thought of, but oh well.

Are you sure this just doesn't fit under 'puzzles'?

Current obbies could use an improvement. They could involve mysteries and clues instead of just being a straightforward obstacle course.
