1. Where Can I Buy Unsolved Case Files in the US
Unsolved Case Files are available to purchase on Amazon.com.
Unfortunately, due to high demand we're having trouble keeping Amazon fully stocked but we are sending new shipments to them every business day. If they're currently showing as out of stock it's hard for us to tell you exactly when they'll be available because they're selling out so quickly and we don't control the Amazon stocking system. But please know we are doing everything we can to expand production and we are sending shipments to Amazon every business day.

After each objective is completed, players can open the appropriate bonus envelope with additional evidence and their next objective.

5. What is the maximum number of players for Unsolved Case Files?
There is no limit because when you play this game as a group everyone works together to solve the case. Each game has over 50 documents to examine so it could be played with a large number of individuals.
If you have more than 6-8 people, you may consider splitting into teams and competing against each other with multiple versions of the case.

6. Can you give me a hint on a case?
Did you already read the three hints available on the answer key? If you enter the wrong answer there should be a button that allows you to access 3 hints.
Each hint reveals more of the answer so you can choose how much help you really need without spoiling the answer.
If the three hints still do not help you find the evidence, we may be able to assist you via Facebook chat. We’re not available 24/7 but are often available.
You can also send a request for a hint through our website here

9. When will the next Unsolved Case File be available?
We send email notifications about new cases when they are fully stocked to people who join our email list. There’s a signup form for our email list at the bottom of this page.
Because we often sell through an intermediary like Amazon, it can be hard to provide an exact date when our cases will become available but if you’d like an email notification as soon as we see a specific case is back in stock and available on Amazon please contact us here.

10. Are Unsolved Case Files real cases?
No. We make them up. Any resemblance to real-life individuals or situations is purely coincidental.
11. Can you only play Unsolved Case Files once?
Yes. It’s like a murder mystery book or a movie - once you know how it ends you can't really experience it the same.
If you take care of the materials in the case and are sure to reassemble them in the same way, you may be able to pass your Unsolved Case File along to another murder mystery fan.
