About this board game
Pocket Detective: Season 1 is a cooperative card-based investigation game for 1–6 players, with a playing time of about 60 minutes. Designed for ages 10 and up, it challenges players to solve three criminal cases through deduction and careful investigation.
Take the role of investigators working to uncover tangled cases and mysterious stories. On each turn, choose an available card to investigate and follow the lead it provides. Cards may reveal a Clue, Location, Witness Interrogation, Special Action, Arrest of a Suspect, or other evidence connected to the case.
Every discovery helps build the story of what happened. Players must gather clues, interrogate suspects, examine evidence, and make arrests while working toward the correct solution. The objective is to solve each case in a minimum number of turns, putting your investigative skills and deduction to the test.
Pocket Detective: Season 1 includes three distinct cases:
- Murder at the University
- Dangerous Liaisons
- Time is Running Out
With its focused card-based format and cooperative investigation, the game presents a compact way for a solo player or group to pursue leads together. Choose which available cards to examine, connect the information you uncover, and determine how the events fit together before reaching your conclusion.
Released in 2022, Pocket Detective: Season 1 brings three criminal mysteries into one collection for players ready to test their ability to interpret clues and solve cases efficiently.
