🎙️ Just wrapped up a Board Game Binge podcast episode—and wow, what a ride!

I had an incredible time talking about the wild journey of creating Murder on the Rocks, from the first cocktail-fueled idea to launching a Kickstarter that's now over 600% funded. 🍸🕵️‍♀️

We covered everything: the challenges, the community, the creative process, my background and even how a bad review led me to build a custom game table to cope (true story). 😂

If you love games, behind-the-scenes stories, or just want to hear how a passion project can turn into something amazing, give it a listen!

🎉 We’re launching TOMORROW on Kickstarter! 🎉

We can’t wait to finally share Murder on the Rocks with you — it’s been such an incredible journey building this game, and tomorrow we officially bring it to life! 💀🍸

✨ New to Kickstarter? Here's how it works:

Kickstarter is a platform that helps creators bring projects to life with the support of backers like you. When you back our game, you’re pre-ordering it and helping us fund the first big production run. You’ll only be charged if we hit our funding goal — and we’ve packed our campaign with exclusive deals, stretch goals, and surprises just for our backers!

🥂 VIPs — a quick note for you:
If you reserved early and paid $1, your Shots of Deception Mini Expansion is already secured! Just back any physical tier when we launch, and the expansion will be automatically added to your order in the pledge manager — no need to add it again. Everyone else will be able to grab it as an add-on for $4, but yours is already locked in. 🎯

📅 Set your reminder, mark your calendars, and get ready to join the investigation.

We launch at 11AM EST/8AM PST at https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/misfitmixers/murder-on-the-rocks-a-mystery-shaken-not-stirred 🚀

Murder on the Rocks has officially been awarded the “Project We Love” badge by Kickstarter! 💀🍸

Something sinister is stirring... and it’s not just the cocktails. 🍸🕵️‍♀️

Murder on the Rocks is a wild whodunit cocktail party game—served up in an actual shaker. Yes, really.

Suspicion never tasted so good.

Coming to Kickstarter soon. 🥂
