ABC Animation Co., Ltd. will handle the production of scenarios and settings, while BANDAI NAMCO Amusement Co., Ltd. will handle the stage version production and publishing of the content, expanding the possibilities of real entertainment through collaboration with IP and media.
“Murder Mystery” is a game in which multiple participants search for the true culprit of a fictitious murder case while discussing with all the members and secret talks with a small number of people according to the setting and casting given in advance. In addition to being enjoyed as a player, it is also gaining popularity as a stage content that allows you to enjoy “Murder Mystery” from a third-person perspective and hear the impressions of the performers in the impression competition after the main performance. From December 3rd (Friday) to 5th (Sunday), 2021, the stage version of “Murder ☆ Mystery-Detective Mizuo Madarame’s Case Files-” will be performed at Asakusa Hana Theater (Taito-ku, Tokyo). Real-time distribution was also performed along with the local performance. In this performance, we will perform a stage version of Murder Mystery that has been further enhanced based on the popular manga “Liar Game”.
The stage “LIAR GAME murder mystery” begins with the gathering of those who received an invitation from a mysterious organization called the Liar Game Tournament Secretariat, commonly known as the LGT Secretariat. A murder case is discovered while playing a game of cheating that is familiar in the original. We will proceed to “Murder Mystery”. There is no script, no dialogue, and the only thing the cast members have is the setting of the cast. In addition to the original fun of “Murder Mystery” players’ psychological warfare and deception, you can feel the cast’s facial expressions, acting skills, and improvisation in real time. One of the attractions is that you can enjoy it. Even in the “Liar Game” that takes place before “Murder Mystery”, pay attention to deceiving each other, strategies to win, and reactions when deceived.
Due to the nature of “Murder Mystery”, which cannot be played again once the true culprit is known, it will be performed with a different cast every day, just like the previous performance. In addition, the daytime and nighttime performances have different scenarios, so you can enjoy different stages with the same cast.
Even if the setting is the same, you can enjoy a different stage each time depending on the cast’s acting, improvisation, and progress. ? Please enjoy the stage where the content, lines, and ending are all created by the cast on the day.

[What is Liar Game? ]
Originally written by Shinobu Kaitani, serialized in Weekly Young Jump magazine from 2005 to 2015.
It depicts a tense psychological battle between the characters over a gambling prize called “The Liar Game”.
The TV drama aired on Fuji TV in 2007. Then made into a movie. A remake version was aired in South Korea in 2014.
One of the works that created the “death game” boom that continues to this day.
In 2011, the number of comics published exceeded 5 million copies.
[What is Murder Mystery? ]
A scenario in which an incident such as murder has occurred is prepared, and participants play the role of characters in the story and proceed with the game while having conversations with the aim of finding the criminal (the person playing the criminal escapes).
Scenarios such as the backbone of each character and actions on the day of the incident are prepared, so you can experience yourself as if you have entered the world of mystery novels. Each scenario can be played only once in a lifetime because all the mysteries will be solved once you experience it.
