CSI Files
Captain
If the two (soon to be three) TV shows, the DVDs, computer game and tie-in novels just aren't enough to satisfy your CSI fix, don't get your UV lights in a twist — you can now play the CSI: Crime Scene Investigation board game.
Produced by SBG Games, the game casts players as CSIs solving one of eight different crimes. As each player moves around the board, they visit the seven crime lab divisions (Interrogation, Autopsy, Identification, Trace, Ballistics, Forensics, and DNA) to gather evidence to further their case.
After consulting Las Vegas crime lab personnel in these areas, players must make their way to Grissom's office. The first player to present the lead CSI with a credible suspect and motive, means and opportunity, wins the game. It isn't all plain sailing along the way, however, with Disclosure Cards and Grissom Cards to "test the players' powers of deduction".
True-crime writer <font color=yellow>Max Haines</font>, whose weekly "Crime Flasbacks" column is syndicated in Canadian newspapers, developed the storylines with SBG executive <font color=yellow>Ed Moitoso</font>. In a press release, SBG president <font color=yellow>Mark Sutcliffe</font> promised that the game "combines cutting-edge scientific methods and old-fashioned police work in an exciting interactive environment."
The complete press release is available at SBG Games, while the game itself is available for order via the CBS Online Store. Thanks to <font color=yellow>'Mrs George Eads'</font> for this!<center></center>
