About

Max and Annie are a hyper-competitive married couple who share a deep-seated passion for puzzles and board games, hosting a weekly gathering that serves as the centerpiece of their social lives. Their routine is disrupted when Max’s charismatic and wealthy brother, Brooks, arrives in town and decides to elevate their next session by hosting an elaborate, high-stakes murder mystery party. The evening is promised to be immersive, featuring staged thugs, staged federal agents, and an enticing grand prize. However, when Brooks is suddenly accosted and taken by armed men right in front of the group, the participants remain convinced that it is simply another elaborate piece of the orchestrated performance. As the couples split up to track down clues and solve the supposed mystery, the boundaries between the artificial game and reality begin to blur rapidly. What begins as a night of lighthearted competition quickly descends into a frantic, high-stakes scavenger hunt across the city. As the friends navigate increasingly dangerous situations and encounter unpredictable characters, they realize that they are no longer just playing a game, but are caught in the middle of a genuine criminal entanglement. With their safety on the line, the group must work together to distinguish between scripted scenarios and authentic threats, turning an ordinary Friday night into an unforgettable and harrowing odyssey of confusion and adrenaline.
