Frequently
Asked Questions
What do I need to play?
Everything you need comes in the envelope, but we recommend a pen and paper to make notes. You will need a device to run the online part of the game; anything with a connection to the internet, but ideally a laptop or desktop computer with speakers to play music. The bigger your screen the better!
Is this game for kids?
Yes! We’ve designed our games to be playable for anyone aged 8 and above. You can play alone or in a group.
What about kids under 8?
If your younger children enjoy puzzles and games, and can call upon an adult for help when they get stuck, there’s no reason why they won’t be able to enjoy Mini Mysteries!
