📖 About This Game
Crime Lords of Knight City is a cooperative card game in which players are detectives trying to put away a notorious crime lord. You'll do this by solving enough crimes to build a solid case against the crime lord. If too many cases go cold, the crime lord wins and takes over the city.
The basic steps in the game include drawing Badge Cards, using Assets and Solving Crimes.
The Badge cards feature icons that match icons on the crimes. Each turn, you are able to play one of your Badge Cards onto one, or more, of the crimes in your docket. If you are able to match all the icons on a crime, it is solved.
As the game progresses, more and more cases will be opened. If you ever have more than 3 crimes in your docket, you must allow one of those crimes to go cold. If too many crimes go cold, the crime lord wins and the players lose the game.
To win the game, players must solve and close enough cases to build a case against the Crime Lord. Each Crime Lord has its own special ability and a varying number of points required to win and/or lose the game. So, each time you play, the difficulty and challenges will change.
