From BoardGameGeek
New York Noir is a film-noir, narrative mystery detective/deduction game, set in New York City, and spanning several decades from the 1930s through the 1950s. It's a cooperative/solo game in the spirit of Sherlock Holmes Consulting Detective, with a focus on longer cases meant to be played over several virtual days. Investigate crimes, identify evidence, and bring justice to the victims. Along the way you'll need to make tough moral choices that affect how the story unfolds. Our focus is on supporting fan made cases. Additional credits: Logan Patrick Hill (map art); Adam Hall (box art & design; rulebook co-design); Debbie Levy (case editing); Anike Boelhouwer (rulebook co-design); Daria Kristal (park art); Lux (criminal history directory, etc.); Many other case authors.
