Description
It’s a mash-up of all your favorite detective stories! This time, the Keepers include clues to the murder, scenes of the crime, weapons, suspects, and a host of classic detectives. Danger cards can cause players to be eliminated (but don’t worry, you can quickly jump back in) and this version introduces another type of card: the Secret! It’s non-transferable and if you’re forced to play or reveal it, bad stuff happens. The game is afoot!
Game Play
It all begins with one basic rule: Draw one card, play one card. You start with a hand of three cards, add the card you drew to your hand, and then choose one card to play, following the directions written on your chosen card. As cards are drawn and played from the deck, the rules of the game change from how many cards are drawn, played, or even how many cards you can hold at the end of your turn.
