Detective Stories: Case 1: The Fire In Adlerstein
The game is a detective game where you get set of evidences and need to decide who is the criminal. You get set physical objects in combination with digital parts and use them for investigation. At the end of the process players need to enter the name of the criminal and it will be validated if it’s correct. It’s also possible to get hints which will help finding the right solution.
Game can played in a cooperative mode as well as in a competition mode – players can split into teams and compete who is finding the criminal first.
The game is designed as a realistic criminal case and requires investigations similar to those carried out by the Criminal Police in real life.
—description from the designer
In unserem Spiel werden Sie als echter Detektiv tätig sein, um den Fall eines verdächtigen Brands zu untersuchen, der in der Stadt Adlerstein stattfand und zum Tod eines Bürgers führte.
Wegen Brandstiftung mit fatalen Folgen wird ein Journalist angeklagt. Er sammelte zahlreiche Beweise mit dem Ziel, seine Unschuld zu beweisen.
Sie müssen ermitteln, ob er die Wahrheit sagt, und den wahren Verbrecher finden.
Das Spiel ist als realistischer Kriminalfall ausgedacht und erfordert Untersuchungen ähnlich denen, die von der Kriminalpolizei im wirklichen Leben durchgeführt werden.

There are a couple of small flaws with the game "evidence pile", but the idea overall is crazy good. The best detective story -related boardgame I have played. A bit on the easy side though... Somebody pick this up and create a good/hard series please based on the idea. +1 points given for originality.

A really good deduction game which benefited from excellent components and clever usage of modern equipment. The game length was just about right.

Irgendwie war ich mit der Lösung nicht ganz einverstanden. Das Spielprinzip hat was, und wenn dieser eine Fall nicht so gut war dann ist bestimmt ein anderer besser.
