Website Features

The website looks good.  It has a flash sample of some of its games, and is easily separated into adult and children’s murder mystery games.  However, it’s too wordy and I lost interest quickly.  The product pages have a sample materials link and a list of characters for every mystery.

Product Features

The product includes characters, instructions, Mp3′s and optional expansion packs and video invitations to send guests.  The site uses paypal.

Website Appearance

Pros:

The slideshow bar at the top of the homepage is pretty engaging although it changes a bit too fast for anyone to actually read what’s listed on the slide.  The slides appear to be very well put together though–even better than their actual product!

Their product logos are nice looking

 

Cons:

Insanely high prices 60$+

The social networking bar is extremely big and overwhelming

Payment site seems to be unsecure

Block of text formats are hard on the eyes

Website Features

This website is very clean and readable.  It isn’t entirely clear that these are downloadable games until you go into the FAQ section–which causes confusion given that the purchaser is asked to provide shipping info in the checkout.

“All of our parties come in the form of a professionally designed 50-125 page pdf. Upon processing of your credit card, you will be redirected to a secure part of our site where you will have 2 weeks to download your party file and email invitations for your guests. By having our games online as instant downloads, we are able to satisfy even the most urgent need for a party.“
