Police Precinct
I always wanted to be a cop so a game with a police theme was just the ticket for me. After watching Tom Vasel’s review of Police Precinct (PP) on YouTube I decided to pick one up. This was easier said than done as PP was a Kickstarter and sold out very quickly. Also complicating things is the fact that I live in Germany.
I was able to track a copy down in Belgium. Since receiving the game I have played it over a half dozen times with experienced and new gamers alike and everyone has really enjoyed it. I have always thought that co-op games lend themselves very well to introducing new people to more complex games and PP in no exception.
Game play keeps everyone engaged as there is always something that needs to be done. Like other co-ops you do not want a “dictator” on the team as they will end up playing a solo game and issuing orders for “the best” move. The components are well made, the board is huge and well laid out, and the box looks great on the shelf.
I HIGHLY recommend that you look into picking up the second edition which is die to release around October 2014 (Essen Speil).
