Overview

Crime Zoom is a series of investigation game for 1 and more players and for plays of about 1 hour. Each investigation propels you into a different universe, but almost always on a crime scene. This crime scene is spread over several cards to form a great illustration. To investigate, nothing more simple. Take a card to take a closer look. An item intrigues you ? Flip the card over and find out what is this little paper on the bedside table. An address ? You can now take the card that corresponds to this track. Unless another element on the crime scene appeals you even more ? In Crime Zoom, you will conduct your investigation freely. Discuss between players to choose the tracks to follow. And as soon as you think you have solved the case, go to the questionnaire. Who is guilty ? What is his mobile ? What is the murder weapon ? And some subsidiary questions, of course. Do not miss the culprit otherwise you will lose the game. But if you answer the questions correctly, the number of cards you will not reveal will decide you. The solution will answer each of the questions. The epilogue will come to tell all this in a story or a testimony history to understand the plot that has been played. Crime Zoom: Un écrivain mortel is the third case of the Crime Zoom family. It brings you in a British manor in 1929. —description from the publisher
