Overview

A bomb found at a chemical plant! As luck would have it, raging hurricane has cut off the small town you are in from the rest of the world. You must take the investigation into your own hands, find the criminals and save the town!

In 3rd part there are no clock icons on cards in opposite to other cases of this series. You will track spent time in other way. Following some links, you will be instructed to reveal top card of special deck. You should do it at the same turn, and it is not relating to correctness of your choice. It just shows your progress towards the denouement. Depending on how much time takes an action or how is it dangerous.

If at least one of the players played 1st or 2nd case, you can try on the role of police officers or journalists. Don't try to cheat or your skill will fail you at the most inopportune moment!

Features:

Compactness – Pocket Detective is really “pocket”, which allows you to take it with you wherever you go! Simplicity - no boring rules! Just take out the deck and start doing what is said on the cards. (DO NOT shuffle the deck!) Intriguing plot - the game will put you in front of difficult choices and make you make fateful decisions that affect the course of the investigation. Uniqueness - the game is independent of the rest of the "cases" of the series.
