Have you always enjoyed board games that involve a mystery to be solved? Are you always the first one to figure out “whodunit” when watching or reading detective stories? Do you live for that delicious moment when you blurt out “ah-hah!” once you have solved the case?

If this sounds pretty much like you then you will surely enjoy the latest game that Disney is about to release. The interactive game Guilty Party revolves around the sleuths of the Dickens Detective Agency. Once you have selected a detective character that you will play, you and the other players will take turns in investigating various scenes in search for important clues. These mysterious environments will range from elegant cruise ships to vast mansions. Once you have gathered all the evidence, you will then compose a character profile of the unknown assailant. Your character sketch will include details such as gender, height, hair and weight. You will then have the option between interrogating the suspect and accusing him right off the bat.

Guilty Party also includes some exciting mini-games that will surely bring out the detective in you. There are games that will require you to dust for fingerprints, interview a witness and such. Another great thing about the game is that it can be customized according to the age of the player and the desired level difficulty. For instance, kids can take advantage of mini-games where the witness will directly lead to the suspect. While older and more experienced players can opt for more challenge by choosing games wherein the witness speaks in riddles or flat out lies.
