Noirlandia Play

Just played my first game of +Evan Rowland's Noirlandia with my wife +Ann D and our friend Phil! We created a city corrupted by technology that we absolutely fell in love with, and then proceeded to roll and flip cards with the worst luck. All of our leads ended up in a single district, which meant that after the first scene, when two black 6s were thrown, we had two escalated districts. On the third scene, the third district was escalated and the game was over. Boom. We unearthed 3 leads and made one connection before our intrepid investigators' journey came to an end.

Even with that rough luck, we were all really satisfied with the story we were able to tell by the end of our epilogues, which tells you how strong the game is. It's a smartly designed game, and after the first scene, we had the hang of how the challenge and investigation rolls went and could move the narrative along smoothly.

We are all excited to play again in the near future and hopefully find an answer or two to the murder before the city explodes into corruption!
