Meet Your Host
Your enigmatic host throughout The Grand Deception is Jordan; a bonafide superfan of gameshows and murder mysteries.
Deeply competitive by nature, Jordan decided to start running events for his friends that combined deception, strategy, and shocking twists.
After seeing how big a hit the game was (although he learned a lot about his closest confidantes in the process..), he decided it was time to create opportunities for other groups to come and play – and The Grand Deception was born.
With Jordan in charge, you can rest assured your Grand Deception experience will be completely immersive, bespoke, and full of surprises you could never see coming.
