FBI (2004)

About this game

From Phalanx Games: You are the leader of a team of inspectors. Your aim: Catch as many bad guys as possible and arrest them. The media and your boss put a lot of pressure on you. Nobody is perfect...and so from time to time you arrest a blameless citizen. However, you should get them out of prison as soon as possible, otherwise you score a lot of negative points. The winner is the player who has arrested the most notorious bad guys. To achieve this aim you need a quick mind, tactical skill and a little bit of luck. The components include 30 Inspector cards, 5 Prison cards, 69 Persona cards, 5 Bonus cards, 1 Handcuff card, 1 Rules booklet.

Does it fit your group?

• Group size. Works with 2 to 5.
• Rules load. At 1.5/5 this is a light game — explain it in a few minutes, good for a table that has not played much.
• Age. The publisher suggests 10 and up. That rates the rules rather than the artwork, so judge the box yourself for younger players.
