CSI Board Game Available Now

Monday February 23, 2004
A board game based on the hit television series CSI - Crime Scene Investigation is now available. Published by Specialty Board Games, the CSI board game was on display at the American International Toy Fair. It features eight all new cases written by Max Haines and reviewed by forensics experts. Each case has its own deck of 24 suspect and evidence cards, along with two "Grissom" cards. Attempting to be the first to solve the crime, players move through the CSI Crime Lab's seven divisions: forensics, DNA, interrogation, trace, identification, autopsy and ballistics. Booster packs with new cases are planned.

My husband & I played the game for 2 hours & never got out of level 1. They need to make easier rules. you can’t go to level 2 till you finish level 1. It could take a day or so for anyone to win. If 4 people play it may take longer. I love the show, it only takes them an hour to solve the crime. It took 4 times around the board befor I even got a evidence card. Its a slooow game!!

I just bought the Encore edition (used) and 1 of the playing cards is missing. Identification for Case 21 Level 1 – I need the text from the back. Thanks.
