Police Precinct is a cooperative/semi-cooperative game where players are tasked with solving a mysterious murder while simultaneously working to keep crime on the streets under control, and to keep the city from falling into chaos.  Players take on the role of police officers with different areas of expertise. The players work together to solve the mystery by collecting evidence and eventually arresting the suspect.  Complicating matters is the fact that there may or may not be a corrupt officer that is being paid off by the murderer to suppress evidence, the same evidence everyone else is trying to uncover.

Police Precinct is a medium weight game that has a small learning curve.  It take about 15 minutes of training with newcomers before they catch on to the game play options and rules.  Since it is cooperative, you work together on the rules and learn to play together.  It is probably the only modern board game with a solid police officer theme, which makes it a unique experience.
