I never really played any murder mystery games but enjoy watching documentaries about such topics. What are your recommendations?

MicroMacro: Crime City is excellent. Can't recommend it enough.

I found Deception: Murder in Hong Kong to be really disappointing. At the time it had stellar reviews but I found it really frustrating. I don't know who had the idea to use the tiniest possible cards on a game that is best with 6-8 people. It's a game for ants.

Cool, thanks for the suggestion! How replayable is MicroMacro after solving the 16 cases?

You don't destroy or mark anything so you can replay or borrow it at any time. However, once you know the solution to the puzzle it's pretty much ruined. My shitty memory forgets the solution so I replay the missions once in a while when introducing the game to a new person.
