Pulp Detective
Find four clues and confront the criminal before time or stamina runs out and the heiress is murdered. Each round, select a storyline card, roll investigation dice to match its icons, and gain rewards or suffer penalties. Failed investigations can provide Twist icons for later use, while items and special actions offer additional options. After finding the fourth clue, identify the criminal and match the required icons to solve the case.
