PLAYED FOR YOU

 

Auf der Flucht

SMall-TOwn hideout for the loot?

 

Both players simultaneously investigate a case by questioning one of the criminals already caught - you are investigator and culprit in turn. You hold a map and 28 location cards of your color as well as three action cards for investigation or defense. Then you construct a case for your opponent; each player draws two cards from the opponent’s locations deck and lays them out as open-faced as crime scene and scene of arrest. Then each player adds four face-down location cards and five corresponding correct escape vehicles. This layout in your color is the case your opponent must solve. All cards are noted in the case file and you also define locations of the accomplice and the loot. Then in turn you pose three questions as regards to the escape, the only possible answers are “yes” or “no”; you cannot ask questions as regards to the locations of loot or accomplice, but you can ask for time relations, e.g. “Was the loot hidden on Tuesday?” Now you can play an investigation card or swap a card. Your opponent can answer your investigation card with a defense card.

If it is your turn and five location cards plus four escape vehicle cards of your case have been deduced correctly, that is, turned up, you can try to solve the case and name the locations of both accomplice and loot in your case; if you are correct you win; if not, your opponent wins.

The narrow elegant black boxes are a guarantee for criminological fun; the location cards offer lots of combinations for many different cases and it is fun and challenging to think up clever questions to glean as much information as possible from the yes/no answers.
