Solve Tricky cases

Welcome to Crime City – a city with crime lurking around every corner. Deadly secrets, sneaky robberies and cold-blooded murders are commonplace around here. The local police are no longer in control of the situation. Therefore, your investigative skills are now required!

Team up with your Friends

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 in order 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. A keen eye is equally as important as clever deduction - this is real detective work!

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 in order 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.

Happy people sitting in cafés. Children wanting an ice cream from the market stall. Art lovers at a gallery opening. But with our trained detective’s eye we can see through the supposed harmony of Crime City’s inhabitants. There are over a dozen murder and crime cases to solve in this enormous bustling city map, drawn in the style of hidden object games. Who had a motive to stab a knife into the skateboarder’s back? Why was the mayor seen just before his death on the waterfront with a large case of money? Clues and signs give us evidence for the sequence of events, leading to an exciting reconstruction of the crime, all without any text and with minimal rules. Jealousy, resentment and deceit are the central themes of this co-operative hidden object game, all wrapped up in the sugar-sweet, knowing and detailed drawings.

A large black-and-white poster and a few cards – that’s all “MicroMacro: Crime City” needs to captivate players. When they lean in over the table to take in the whole scene, you can cut the tension with a knife. Everyone’s eyes flit over the city map, trying to reveal new information about the crime. Heated discussions between players about motives and evidence can created truly unforgettable moments.
