New Game The game is simple--he is the Hunter. They are
the Prey. He gives them a chance to escape. To run. To hide.
To outsmart him. But eventually, he catches them. And that's
when the game gets really terrifying...
New Rules
Private investigator Griffin Powell and FBI agent Nicole
Baxter know a lot about serial killers--they took one down
together. But this new killer is as sadistic as they've ever
seen. He likes his little games, and he especially likes
forcing Nic and Griff to play along. Every unsolvable clue,
every posed victim, every taunting phone call--it's all part
of his twisted, elaborate plan. And then the Hunter calls,
wanting to know if they're really ready to play...
But
Winner Still Kills All... There's a new game now, and
it's much more deadly than the first. A brutal psychopath
needs a worthy adversary. He won't stop until he can hunt
the most precious prey of all--Nicole. And with his partner
in a killer's sights, Griff is playing for the biggest
stakes of his life.
There are a lot of options, the cards vary in value, but all in one way or another affect the gameplay. As an element of randomness, when your character, say, passes the next arena from the last strength, and a card that allows you to heal, as luck would have it, does not fall out!

In Forced Showdown, you can and should open new maps and improve their deck. You earn money earned in military works on roulette in the hope that some rare and useful thing will drop out. And even better, if the crystals fall out, they are allowed to create a map of any value for themselves (if there are enough resources, of course). (Henrik Jensen 10:34am May 20, 2018)
