The first mystery
The Missing Weekend Fund
Friday, 11:40 PM. The lake house trip leaves at 8 tomorrow morning.
The trip fund had $1,200 in it. By midnight it was empty: three transfers, and the last one was approved with Face ID at 11:52 PM.
Everyone here could get into the fund. Everyone says they were nowhere near a phone. One of you is lying.

Before the night, your friends say what you’re known for, and the game makes you that character. Tap one to see who they’re made for.
The Fashionably Late
“Five minutes away.” Since 2019.
Made for the friend who’s always 20 minutes late.
Like everyone, they have a small secret to protect. If they turn out to be the culprit, they also have a reason for taking the money.
Every phone shows something different
Your file and secret stay on your screen. The detective’s questions use what your friends said about you.
Only you can see this
You are
The Unofficial Trip Manager
You made the itinerary. Nobody read it.
Your secret
Your goal
Work out who took the money, and keep your own secret: you booked a secret sunset boat with fund money.
Try it with a friend’s name
This is a real line from the game.
The detective asks
“Jordan, you’re always 20 minutes late. So where were you at 11:52?”
Lines you’ll hear tonight
A few things people say in The Missing Weekend Fund, straight from the game.
“At 11:52 I was on the phone with my mom. For an hour. Don’t ask.”
“Someone saw Maya checking the trip fund app at dinner. Twice.”
“At 11:52 I had a face mask on and wet hands. Face ID doesn’t work like that.”
“Exhibit A: Ethan, famous for “cries at every movie”. Exhibit B: an empty trip fund. Discuss.”
