Description

You are each a mouse private detective working to solve a conspiracy in 1938 New York City. Each turn you’ll investigate case files which when closed, lead to hunches about the larger conspiracy. You’ll travel around the city to collect evidence, talk to snitches, improve your skills and use your moxy (and occasionally your pistol) while the cat threatens the leader. When the game is over, the conspiracy is revealed and you’ll discover if your hunches were right!

Starting with the first player and proceeding clockwise, on your turn, you must select 1 die and take a Dice Action and then optionally Close Files from your hand of cards. Play proceeds until all players have taken 4 Dice Actions. This ends a round - events are resolved and the cat threatens the leader. The detective badge is passed to the left and that player now rolls all of the dice to begin the next round. The game continues this way until 5 rounds have completed. Players then add up end game bonus points plus their points scored during the game. Highest score wins.
