Detective: L.A. Crimes (Expansion)

Detective: L.A. Crimes is the first campaign expansion for the acclaimed board game Detective: A Modern Crime Board Game. This expansion immerses players in the gritty world of 1980s Los Angeles, where they assume the roles of LAPD detectives tackling three interconnected cases that form a cohesive narrative.

Key Features:

• Interconnected Cases: The expansion comprises three distinct cases that collectively weave a single, compelling story. Players must solve them sequentially, as each case builds upon the previous one, offering a rich, campaign-style experience.
• New Mechanics: Detective: L.A. Crimes introduces innovative gameplay elements, such as surveillance and observation, allowing players to gather information on suspects more effectively. Additionally, the expansion presents opportunities to take actions "off the books," which can yield valuable insights but may also increase stress levels.
• Enhanced Immersion: Set in the 1980s, the expansion features a redesigned game board with period-specific aesthetics, capturing the essence of Los Angeles during that era. Players can also utilize online resources, embracing the "Breaking the Fourth Wall" mechanism, to access information that would have been available to detectives at the time.

Components:

• 108 cards, including case decks, dossiers, and response cards.
• A double-sided game board reflecting 1980s Los Angeles.
• Five character tiles, each with unique skills and abilities.
• A concise rulebook outlining new mechanics and gameplay elements.
