The Last Resort
Somebody is dead.One of you is the Guilty Party.
Ava Lux invites you to the launch of
AVAURA
Ritual Drops
A few drops. A whole new you.
Dress: luminous. Cameras: essential.
All eyes
on Ava.
The guests are gathered.
The cameras are rolling.
She unveils AVAURA.
And takes the
first taste.
Minutes later,
Ava collapses.
The victim
Wellness founder. Influencer. Your host for the weekend.
She built an empire on serenity and made a long list of enemies doing it. Every one of them was in the room when she raised her cup.
Nobody has left the retreat since. The person responsible is still here.
Ava Lux is dead. Her guests are now suspects.
Everyone gathered for the AVAURA launch. Everyone watched as Ava dropped dead.
Behind the perfect retreat lie private grudges, hidden connections and secrets worth killing for.
Before the night is over, you must uncover:
The killer is among you.
Nobody has left the retreat since Ava died. The person responsible is still here.
The investigation begins with the person on your left.
Initial Scene Evidence
Twelve physical clues recovered from the retreat, made to be passed round, picked apart and fought over.
No single clue gives away the answer.
Some point to murder. Others just expose something deeply embarrassing. Good luck telling them apart.
The guest list
Twelve guests checked in. Every one of them had a reason to want Ava gone, and almost all of them are lying about something.
Bring them into the light
No. 01
The Hostess
Everybody here believes this house is hers. She knows every room, carries every key, and somehow joins in with every free treatment.
No. 02
The Journalist
Hosts a popular wellness podcast. She came to record a friendly profile of Ava, but her questions are far too detailed for a lifestyle story.
No. 03
The Photographer
He took the pictures that built Ava's public image and knows her best angles and her worst moods. They fell out badly, but she kept paying him.
No. 04
The Superfan
Ava's biggest fan won her place here in a social media competition. She has saved every post, every launch and every deleted caption.
No. 05
The Chef
Hired to create the perfect wellness menu for the retreat. He made the cacao for tonight's ceremony with his own hands.
No. 06
The Solicitor
Ava's lawyer and longtime fixer. He is here to check every word of the launch, and he has not put his folder down all weekend.
No. 07
The Personal Assistant
She runs Ava's diary, her brand deals and every crisis in between. For years she has been the most capable person in the room.
No. 08
The Spiritualist
Leads the retreat's breathwork. He is always inviting people to let go of what no longer serves them. He never says where they should put it.
No. 09
The Doctor
The only person here with medical training. All weekend, in front of everybody, she has said she does not believe in AVAURA.
No. 10
The Brother
Ava's brother. They have not talked properly in years, and he was not on the guest list. He asked to see her, and she said yes.
No. 11
The Entrepreneur
Founder of a wearable that tracks sleep, stress and recovery. He tracks everything except whether anybody wants to hear about it.
No. 12
The Masseuse
The retreat's massage therapist: calm, discreet and properly trained. Ava has hired her before, because treatments make people talk.
Everyone has a motive. Everyone has something to hide. Only one of you is guilty.
Only one of them did it. You'll have to play to find out who.
Join the guest listDo not mistake a secret for the solution. Almost everybody has done something they do not want exposed.
Question your friends.
Examine the evidence.
Protect your secrets.
Name the killer.
How it plays
The Inspector sets the scene. Then the table takes over. No rounds, no scripts. Just questions, lies and accusations until somebody cracks. And dress the part. Ava would expect nothing less.
Introduce yourselves, then tip out the evidence.
Poke holes in alibis. Pick your moment to reveal what you know.
Who did it, how and why. Write it down and lock it in face-down.
Break the seal. Find out who got away with it.
Dodge, deflect and protect your secrets. But ask you straight, and you must tell the truth.
You're allowed to lie. Not about everything. Choose carefully.
Solve the murder, protect your secrets and redirect suspicion to finish with the strongest score.
Your Character Brief
On the outside: your name and your face, for the whole table to see. On the inside: everything you'd rather nobody knew.
The case file
More than 40 pieces, all in one case file. Including the Inspector's briefing, 12 clue artefacts, 12 character briefs, 12 accusation cards and a sealed Final Reveal.
Coming soon
The Last Resort opens soon. Put your name down and be first through the door. We'll only be in touch when there's news. Or a body.
