Welcome to Crime City, a city where crime lurks around every corner. Disastrous secrets, devious robberies and cold-blooded murders are the order of the day here. The local police are no longer able to control the situation. Therefore, the work of clever investigators is required. MicroMacro - Crime City is a cooperative detective game. Together, the players solve 16 tricky criminal cases by determining motives, finding evidence, and convicting the perpetrators. An attentive eye is just as important as a deductive talent to unravel everything riddle on the 75 x 110 cm large game board. A magnifying glass is included in the game to help with finding every detail. One player takes on the role of Lead Investigator and is responsible for reading the case cards out loud (but of course they will also help with solving the case). The players choose together which case they want to play, and the Lead Investigator reads out the corresponding start card as well as the first task. Together, the players explore the map of Crime City to answer all the questions on the case cards, one after another. The game ends as soon as the last case card has been answered correctly.

Title: Such a fun game
Review: If you are into mysteries and board games this is the game for you. The games starts off easy, but easily gets more challenging. So much fun to play with you and your significant other or a party. Make sure to have a table that everyone can see and go around the board. Easy game to follow and understand the instructions. After going through the game once you could easily do it again, as there is so many different mysteries inside. May not be child appropriate though, but is mild in crude material.

Title: 10 year old boy loved this, Collaborative, Reading
Review: This was a BDay gift for my 10 year old nephew who lives a long distance away, so I asked a friend who had just attended a bday party with 20 ten-year old boys what the popular presents were. This was on the list. It was a hit, and every spare moment, he asked me to play. Well designed game that encourages collaboration, searching details for clues, and bonus - he worked on his reading skills since he was the Lead Detective. It starts with an easier training crime, and progresses to more difficult. Tips: you need a large table to lay out the map and good lighting to see the detail. Adults will need their glasses. It comes with one magnifying tool. It was fun! Also satisfying to piece together the crime scene and solution. Game says 12 and up, but this 10 year old did great.

Title: Great family focused game - a little basic for hard core board gamers
Review: Fun quick game that is easy to learn. Kinda like an easier version of those murder in a box games, but that means it also lacks a little depth from those experiences.The map is large, and amazing. Toss out the magnifying glass, and use your own if you have one.I'm sure they could come up with an "encyclopedia brown" level that would be more appropriate for elementary schoolers as some parents may not want to deal with themes of murder.

Title: Fun board game for the family
Review: I bought this for my 20's daughter who loves mysteries. It comes with a HUGE map which you examine to solve the cases. Four of the kids played on the kitchen table the day it was opened. They solved half the mysteries. They said it was a cool game. There are expansions and other mysteries that can be bought.

Title: Super fun!
Review: I bought this game as a drinking game with friends and honestly cut out the drinks because itâs actually kind of difficult as is lol. Itâs super fun and the harder the cards get the more you get into it. I highly recommend!

Title: Fun Game!
Review: I bought this for my husband for Valentine's Day and it has been a great, quick game, to pick up and play whenever we have a few minutes to spend together. Because it is collaborative, it is a great way to spend quality time together. We have played it with up to 4 people and thoroughly enjoyed the game. Very easy to learn!

Title: Excellent game, perfect for 2 players.
Review: Saw the game online, sounded interesting. Read a few reviews and all were positive. Now that Iâve played the game I wanted to add to the positive reviews. Itâs a mix between whereâs Waldo and who-done-it. Me and my daughter love the game! There are extra stories online as well once you complete all the stories.TIP: I read a review before I bought that said to use plastic over the paper game map. Then you can use dry erase markers to make notes and follow stories. That was the BEST advise. I bought plastic on Amazon (Crystal Clear PET Plastic Sheets... https://www.amazon.com/dp/B09572YB4T?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share) wasnât a perfect fit but I cut the extra length to fill in for the width (needed a few cuts) and just scotch taped the pieces together. I really donât know how you would play without this. I guess it would just be much harder but I suggest using plastic over the map for sure A++ til from previous reviewer.
