You are a probate attorney at a law firm that specializes in the execution of the wills of eccentric millionaires.
Normally, this involves meticulously organizing elaborate scavenger hunts, indulgent galas, or absurd weeks-long competitions.
This time around, you received a letter from your Client after their untimely death describing their belief that one of the potential heirs may have murderous intent. Not only will you be hosting elaborate challenges to determine who will be the principal beneficiary of your Client’s estate, you must discover who the killer is at the same time.
Estate of Play is a solo journaling roleplaying game of murder, inheritance, and competition. Inspired by The Westing Game, The Amazing Race, and other murder mysteries, the game places you in the seat of competition host, legal counsel, and detective.
To play this game, gather the following:
- 1+ Players
- 1-2 Hours
- Pen and Paper
- Set of dice: d4, d6, d8, d10, d12
- A coin (d2)
- A deck of 52 playing cards
“From the events to the clues, Estate of Play is a perfectly executed, beautiful mystery TTRPG. It scratches the Knives Out itch perfectly!”

“The game mechanics cleverly do double duty: if you can’t successfully pull off running globe-trotting inheritance challenges, you’ll never find the clues pointing to your eccentric client’s killer! Fast-paced, fun, and full of delightful twists.”
