They wrote my father into the story
For his seventieth. I sent them a page of family detail and they came back with a case built around a fictional version of his old firm. He worked out the ending, of course, because he always does, but he was visibly moved that anyone had gone to that trouble. My mother cried. Worth every zloty, euro, whatever you're paying in.

Genuinely bespoke, not a template with our names in it
I'd half assumed 'written for your group' meant find-and-replace. It didn't. The motive, the suspects and the final scene were built from a call we had six weeks earlier, and two of the characters were affectionate parodies of people in the room.

Expensive. I'd still do it again
This is not the cheap option and they don't pretend otherwise. What you get is a producer on the night, a full cast, and a keepsake case file everyone took home. For a one-off occasion it was the right call; for a normal night out I'd take the standard version.
