Description
This is an exciting cooperative game as players collaborate with each other and work as detectives to solve a case and prove their client’s innocence. To play this game, each player takes turns trying to get to locations and uncover clues to help solve the case. Money is also an important part of this game as players need to spend their client’s cash to move their pawn on their turn. If they run out of money and the client goes broke, then the game is over. If a player lands on a location that has clue cards, they can choose a card to expose that helps by giving details to solve the case. An example of this could be ruling out a suspect or murder weapon. There are also obstacles that can be exposed when turning over a clue card. These will have to be solved by using one of the M.O. cards given to players at the beginning of the game. To win the game, one detective must get back into the office space on the game board and if all clues have been exposed then the solution to the case is apparent from the parts that have not been ruled out. If all the clues have not been exposed, then you cannot solve the case, but you can make some educated guesses with your team if you get a detective back into the office. This game would be a great addition to game night and a must-add for mystery lovers. For 2-8 players.
