P.I. / สืบจากสาง
P.I. is a pure deduction game, with players competing in three consecutive mini-games in order to see who's got the best chops in terms of solving their cases.
Each mini-game plays out the same way. To start, you receive in secret one suspect card (out of 12), one crime card (out of 10), and one location card (out of 14); this set of information represents the case that the player to your left must solve. The game board shows fourteen locations arranged so that each location touches a few others; each location has space for a suspect and crime tile. Shuffle the suspect tiles (12, plus two "no suspect") and the crime tiles (10, plus four "no crime"), then place one face up in each location. Each suspect, crime and location is included in a deck of evidence cards, and nine evidence cards are revealed.
On a turn, a player either places an investigator, chooses an evidence card, or attempts to solve her case. When you place an investigator in a location, the player to your right looks at his case cards, then places a disc on this space for each case card he holds that matches the suspect, crime or location in this space. Additionally, he places a cube on this space for each suspect, crime or location that's adjacent to this space.
When you choose an evidence card, the player to your right places a disc on the matching tile if the card matches one of the case cards he holds, places a cube on the matching tile if this tile is adjacent to a tile matching one of the case cards he holds, or places nothing if you've made a wild-eyed guess and the tile isn't adjacent to anything.
To attempt to solve the case, you place a black token on your guesses. If wrong, you're penalized two points and continue play next turn. If right, you receive 7, 5, 3 or 1 points depending on how many others have solved their cases in earlier rounds.
The mini-game ends once everyone has solved their case or only one case remains unsolved. All used investigators are removed from play, then the board and cards are reset for the next mini-case. Each player has only five investigators total, so use them wisely!
Whoever has the most points after three mini-cases wins.

กฎย่อ
P.I. (Private Investigator) is a very simple deductive game consisting of 3 mini-games.
Each player has a case they need to solve.
To solve a case you need to know:
1. The criminal 2. The location of the criminal 3. The type of the crime
Each turn you can do one of the following actions:
1. Use an investigator on a location (You only have 5 for the entire game) 2. Pick an evidence card 3. Attempt to solve the case
If you use an investigator on a location, that will tell you the number of matching cards to your case (either location/ criminal or crime) that are either:
1. On the location you've used the investigator on (indicated by a disc) 2. On a location that is adjacent to this location (indicated by a cube)
If there are none of any of those, then it tells you that
So for example you could get:
3 Exact / 0 Adjacent (3 discs / 0 cube, All matching cards are on that location, how lucky!) 2 Exact / 1 Adjacent (2 discs / 1 cube) 1 Exact / 2 Adjacent (1 disc / 2 cubes) 0 Exact / 3 Adjacent (0 disc / 3 cubes) 2 Exact / 0 Adjacent (2 disc / 0 cubes) 1 Exact / 1 Adjacent (1 disc / 1 cubes) 1 Exact / 0 Adjacent (1 disc / 0 cubes) 0 Exact / 0 Adjacent (0 disc / 0 cubes)
If you use an evidence card on a location, then the same happens but it will only tell you the matching cards that are of the same type of the evidence card.
For example if your evidence card that is of the type (criminal) then it tells you the number of matching cards (ONLY criminal type) that are either:
1. On the location you've used the card on 2. On a location that is adjacent to this location
Finally you can attempt to solve the case, click on a criminal, a location and a crime type.
If you're right, then you get points
If you're wrong, then you lose 2 points
Simple as that.
To simplify things, let's give names to a couple of the game phases:
There are 3 Rounds
Each round is composed of Phases where each player takes their turns (Starting by the starting player)
For example, if A is the first player and B is the second player:
Then each phase is composed of two turns (A then B)
Once a player solves a case for the first time in that round
(In phase 6 of the current round for example)
Then they get 7 points, and EACH subsequent player who solves
their case in the same phase (phase 6 in our example) gets ALSO 7 points.
Once the phase ends, if there are at least two players who didn't solve the case yet, then the game continues, but on the phase the next player solves the case they get 2 less points and that goes for all players who solves the case on the same phase.
This continues on and on, until only 1 (or 0) player remains. That player won't gain any points, and the next round starts.
