Dead on time. What does this phrase mean?

Well, it actually means that at exactly the given time, you have been able to achieve what you were supposed to do. So maybe you have this project that you have to submit on or before 9 o'clock in the morning. If you were able to submit it at exactly that time, then you were dead on time.

However, word play can sometimes happen to phrases and idioms like this one. And for this one, it has been used as a title to a murder mystery party game. If you like murder mysteries, well, this may be one that you would like. After all, you may have chanced upon this dead on time before you actually went crazy trying to look for new ideas on how to cure away your boredom and ideas on how to make a party with your closest friends become fun.

The story about the murder mystery Dead on Time is about a train back in the year 1930 and it is on its way to Moscow. However, during its travel, the personal aide of the ambassador of Japan turns up dead. Now, the game's goal is to find out what happened to the personal aide.

The fun part about murder mystery party games is that those who would be joining the party would have to play different roles. These would be the characters in the story and all of you would have to act out to be able to solve the mystery. There would have to be eight people to complete the whole deal.

If you have no idea just how you would be able to send out word to those people that you would be inviting, well, you have not to worry anymore because the whole kit comes with invitations that you can send out. That would look pretty much cool. There would also be a guide to assist you in choosing just what type of food you can serve.

A guide also comes with the kit which would assist all of you with who the characters are and what they are like. That way, you can play your roles well and enjoy solving the mystery yourselves. With a murder mystery like this on your hands, your party will definitely be one that all of you will be talking about for a long time (and your friends may be asking you to hold another one soon).
