In short What to expect

Step into an immersive courtroom trial. As members of the jury, the power to deliver justice rests entirely in your hands. Debate the case, question the motives and cast your votes throughout the show. Decide who walks free... and who pays the price. This is jury duty like you've never experienced it before.

Program Frankenstein on Trial: The Man Who Defied God

A forbidden experiment. A created being. A trail of deaths. Dr. Victor Frankenstein stands trial. His creation — assembled from human remains and brought to life through forbidden science — has already been convicted of murder. Now the court must decide whether Frankenstein himself should be held accountable for the deaths that followed his experiment. When a creator unleashes something into the world, where does his responsibility end?

Experience highlights

Not your average case
Our cases are designed to be challenging, taking you through more twists and turns than a rollercoaster.
Serve on a jury
In this courtroom, jury duty is more than casting a vote. Because the line between what's your responsibility and what isn't can be razor-thin. In this case, nothing can be overlooked. Every word matters. Every detail counts.
Stay sharp, think smart
Pay attention to testimonies, exhibits and details. Because someone might be playing you... and they might just get away with it.
Deliver the verdict
Vote throughout the show and ultimately decide: guilty or not guilty. Will justice be served? Well, that's up to you.

Deliver your verdict
