Like Escape Rooms? Murder Mystery Parties? Star Trek? Well, if you’ve answered ‘Yes’ to those then Beadle & Grimm have got a couple of games coming that will definitely be of interest.

Set in worlds of Deep Space Nine and Star Trek: Lower Decks each game lets you solve mysteries and puzzles steeped in Star Trek lore. Non-Star Trek fans can also play the puzzles as no knowledge of the lore is required to solve them, but die-hard fans of the series should love the attention of the mythos, familiar characters, and references to the series.

The two games, which are currently being crowdfunded on Kickstarter, are:

  • Deep Space Nine: Holosuite Homicide - a murder mystery game for 1+ players. Enter the world of Deep Space Nine as you try and clear Quark’s name and find clues, confiem alibis, and solve the mystery of the Holosuite Homicide.

  • Lower Decks: Chaos Protocol - an escape room game for 1+ players. Join the crew of the starship Cerritos from Star Trek: Lower Decks as they uncover a strange and dangerous mystery deep within their starship.
