Sometimes we play the unsolved case files games in which the players are given a murder case and a series of questions to answer. The answers for each step are in sealed envelopes and you cannot proceed without correctly identifying each clue. A file folder on each suspect is included, along with maps and newspaper clippings. We might spend weeks on it and get nowhere.

It can be frustrating, however, they are enlightening to the fact that in order to succeed, a patient and detail oriented mindset can win the day.
