About the game
New city card given to backers of the game during the Kickstarter campaign. CRIMINALS SET UP AND UTILITY TOKEN RULES At game start, place only 6 criminals on each location and leave the remainder in the bag. Also, place 1 utility token on each location: 2 face-up and 2 face-down. At game end, the player with the most strength at a location wins the token and scores its value in points. SIREN TOKENS RULES At game start, place 1 random siren token on each location. After Step 2, if a location has a number of field agents equal to or higher than the number on the siren token, the player with the most strength (no ties) arrests any 1 criminal from that location. Then, remove the siren token. CLARIFICATIONS Infiltrate: If the flipped mole is a special agent, the player flipping the card uses the power and the owning player does not (unless the player taking the turn has flipped her own card). Patrol: A player should not try to "feel" the criminal tokens to pick a particular type.
