## Description
Mord im Arosa is a mystery‑thriller set inside a Swiss hotel tower. For 2 to 6 players, each takes on the role of a curious guest trying to uncover the murderer while avoiding becoming the main suspect. The game employs a cube tower: players drop their clues – small wooden cubes in different colors – into the tower, where they land on various floors, revealing information that only a keen ear can interpret. Each color stands for a type of evidence, and players must remember where each cube lands to accuse others or shield themselves. The final goal is to have the fewest "suspicious facts" attached to you; the player who best deflects the clues wins. 

Components include an 8‑piece hotel, two victim miniatures, 120 cubes in six colors, and an investigation sheet. A round lasts 30‑45 minutes and carries a light weight (1.4/5), perfect for fans of quick, interactive, suspenseful games. The memory mechanic blends with the dexterity of dropping cubes, creating an upbeat rhythm that shines in party settings. While the tower’s randomness can produce surprise moments, the need to listen for sounds and track colors keeps the game strategic. If you enjoy mysteries, short sessions, and a dash of physical skill, Mord im Arosa delivers a fun, accessible experience for the whole family.
