Description
In Bad Detectives, you're competing against your fellow aspiring detectives to solve a murder investigation and impress your boss. The catch is, none of you really know what you're doing, having only learned from watching TV shows. The game is easy to learn, and 3 to 4 players can join in on the fun, which lasts around 45 to 60 minutes. You'll take turns adding information to a network of clues, trying to connect the suspect, weapon, and crime scene to the victim. The goal is to earn the most Evidence Points by linking the victim to the most relevant leads, but you'll need to undermine your colleagues and take creative shortcuts to get ahead. With its humorous take on detective work and simple tile placement mechanics, Bad Detectives is a hilarious and engaging game designed by Zach Barton, perfect for those who enjoy card games and humor.
