Perfect Alibi

About this board game

Perfect Alibi is a 3–5 player deduction game that takes about 45 minutes, set aboard a ship where a dead body has been discovered and every passenger appears to have an alibi.

To solve the mystery, ask clever questions and apply careful deductive reasoning. Several professionals are on board and willing to help, but their assistance may not be entirely dependable. Some of the information you receive can be false, making trust a central part of the investigation.

The challenge is not simply to gather clues. You must work out who is lying to whom, determine which statements deserve confidence, and use the available assistance to uncover the missing alibi and identify the murderer.

• Deductive reasoning in the tradition of Sleuth
• A shorter playing time than many other deduction games
• Questioning and information analysis shaped by potentially false information
• Professional assistants who can help advance your investigation

Every answer may bring you closer to the truth—or send your investigation in the wrong direction. Reading the information carefully and taking full advantage of the professionals on board are essential to separating reliable evidence from deception.

With its combination of classic mystery deduction and uncertainty about the information you receive, Perfect Alibi offers a focused hunt for the culprit in a compact format.
