P.I (Second Edition) | What's In the box? No.90 [Unboxing/opening/first impressions/quick look]

About P.I. (Second Edition), from BoardGameGeek:

A stifling day in the big city. a lone P.I. prowls the mean streets, trying to keep one step ahead of the cops and rival shamuses. The case had seemed so simple at first, but considering the recovered documents, footprints, and that lone key... it's clear that this was merely the entrance to a complex labyrinth. All you can do is keep asking questions. Search the harbor, chinatown, and main street. Watch the central station, civic center and cafes. Keep trying to piece it together, keep asking questions... P.I. (Second Edition) is a new remake of the legendary deduction classic by Martin Wallace. This second edition, released after 15 years, features brand-new artwork and introduces a dedicated two-player head-to-head mode. In addition, by scanning the QR code in the rulebook and downloading the companion app, players can enjoy a solo time-attack mode in which an App hides the clues for you to uncover. In more detail.. In the original edition, scoring was calculated at the end of each round by summing points based on the success or failure of deductions made during that round. In the new edition, points are tracked in real time for each individual deduction attempt, according to the result. In the first edition, points were awarded in descending order based on the order in which players successfully solved the case. In the second edition, however, once the first player successfully makes a deduction, the maximum number of points available begins to decrease with each subsequent round. This adjustment was made to allow for a faster pace of play in line with current design trends. In the two-player mode, the game is no longer decided by accumulated points. Instead, each round is determined by whether a player's deduction attempt succeeds, and the first player to win two out of three rounds wins the game. However, winning a round requires returning a hint token, which creates a penalty in the following round. For this purpose, the reverse side of the board is used, along with a dedicated scoreboard for determining round victories. The solo mode represents the most significant change compared to the previous version. It introduces a real-time deduction format, where players score based on how quickly and accurately they solve the clues. Results can be uploaded to a server, allowing players to compete against others through a leader board system.
