Decktective: You Can't Cheat Death
Players work together to reconstruct a crime scene in a 1950s Las Vegas casino after discovering several people dead at a high-stakes secret table. Through card-driven investigation, players collect and examine evidence—documents, traces, audio recordings and more—and combine clues to propose coherent solutions that explain who killed the victims and why. The game supports solo or group play and emphasizes logical deduction and the creative linking of disparate facts to test competing theories.
