Detective: City of Angels*

Set in the dark and violent world of 1940s Los Angeles, this game is filled with mystery, deception, and investigations for 1-5 players. Most players assume the roles of LAPD murder detectives, eager for fame and willing to do whatever it takes to solve a case, including intimidating suspects and hiring informants. One player, however, takes on the role of The Chisel, whose goal is to thwart the detectives with bluffing and manipulation.

The game features an innovative system that simulates interrogating suspects, where responses can be strategically misleading. Each crime is a carefully crafted puzzle that can unfold in various ways, depending on the detectives' approach, creating a richly story-driven experience. A cooperative mode allows one or more players to work together to solve cases.
