Police Precinct (http://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/118536/police-precinct) another Kickstarter (http://www.kickstarter.com) game, there are those that like and Dislike the Kickstarter (http://www.kickstarter.com) model but there are some gems coming out through that method and I think this is one of them.

Really nice game design, the board and the components are well done fitting the theme quite well. Mostly a co-operative game, though there is a variant to play with a traitor (Dirty Cop). The idea is there has been a murder and you as a group are trying to investigate this crime to gather enough evidence to be able to arrest the culprit before he can escape the city. Trouble is you have emergencies, street gangs, car accidents, escort duties etc. etc. All the things that the Police need to do to keep the city streets safe, so you have to juggle getting evidence with solving these various distractions. All the time the number of turns are counting down, the murderer is making good his escape and the crime levels are rising. There are multiple ways to lose this game, with only one sure way to win  It plays really well and the event cards, special abilities, evidence cards all add up to building a suitable atmosphere as you play the game.

It feels like you are walking a tight-rope as you all try and balance the achieving your goal and keeping control of the city, I really enjoyed playing this and would gladly play it again.
