I love that clean and mature versions of the mysteries are available. As a parent I want to make sure the party isn’t too mature or dark for the kids and they can have fun. As much as my child and I can explore the darker themes not all parents want their kid exposed to those things and I need to make sure not to upset a child or their parent during a party that’s supposed to be light-hearted and fun. I like that your company recognizes and accommodates those issues.

This will depend on (a) the version of party you order and (b) what you/they want to do at the party.
Some murder mystery party game rules say (generally the smaller 6-8 guest and 8-12 guest versions) have the victim rise and become the investigator after their “death.”
Since the victim does not know who murdered them, they can still play along and try to guess the murderer using their previous background knowledge and their money in order to bribe and blackmail others and derive their secrets from one another.
If you have a larger version, and you have not assigned the investigator (they are generally listed as the first person to eliminate for this reason), then the victim will need to become the investigator.
If you have assigned the investigator, but have an extra role that is not already filled, the victim can become this person (if you order the 20-80 player version, this will always be an option).
If the victim wishes to do nothing, they can do that as well. Some guests really enjoy playing along “dead” and trying to figure out who killed them.
