The Last Detective

Detective. Arriving. On the scene.

I translated the game to Spanish. In the end! I made some adaptations and clarified the rules as well. Here it is: https://solohistorias.itch.io/el-ultimo-detective I added a Twitch video explaining how to play in Spanish. I will polish it and publish it in YT also. Regards.

Hi, again, I am creating an episodic humour story (as a podcast in Spanish) based on the gameplay we did on Twitch last Christmas 2021. Within that frame, I would like to translate the game into Spanish and make it available to Spanish-speaking community, with some minor modifications, based on my own gameplay experience. There is one aspect, though, that I still did not get clear: the Absolute failures w/o solving the case. What is it? And how to use it? I developed two possible case uses for that, but I am quite confident they are not what you had in mind when you created it. If you unveil my ignorance, I can translate it properly. Otherwise, I will not be able to follow the spirit of your idea so loyally. :-D Regards. Antonio

This is a great game, that introduced me to the woderful and simple Caltrop system. I played it on Twitch and we had a lot of fun. Nevertheless, I had some doubts about the Absolute failures without solving the case. I understood that this is the number of failures to be triggered in order to apply such consequences, but I, as GM, decided myself what was the consequence. And left open the possibility to throw a d8 die when there were too many failures, and according to the roll, one effect or another could be applied, since I didn’t see much worse one than another. Finally, I didn’t understand at all what the term “w/o solving the case” meant. If you solve the case, then it hasn’t been a failure, isn’t it? So… But in general, a great game so easy and fun.
