Is this based of like a European cartoon? lol, the boxart makes like no sense

 

[Donato_Dobango]

Doing a bit of research dug up that this is based on a board game that features a strategy twist. You can either play as a thief or as a detective trying to bring him down. The game features multiplayer with chat features to coordinate and plan against the other side.

Scotland Yard is comparable to the FBI

It's a board game! YAY (for me and to some minority here at GBATEMP, i guess

)
the DS is the perfect consule for board games... Citadels will be a bast to play in the DS...

 

[cosmiccow]

it could translate pretty well into a ds-game..

features 5 city maps instead of one, has 2 single player campaigns and multi- as well as single card play.

Scotland Yard is comparable to the FBI

No it isn't.

A really good game!!!

 

[Alastair]

Correct, its simply a headquarters.

Police headquarters. I went past NSY a month or two ago.

 

[Little]

yeah its MI5 and MI6 that are FBI =p


anyway... the name intrigued me till i saw the boxart! I dont know if I should judge this game by its cover!!

 

[Just Joe]

yeah its MI5 and MI6 that are FBI =p

Actually I'd say MI5 and MI6 are more like CIA/NSA than FBI, although the FBI does also have a part to play in counter terrorism within the USA. MI5 and MI6 are part of the intelligence services, and not really about criminal investigations. I don't think we have an FBI equivalent in the UK because most of the FBI remit falls within the remit of the British Police Force.

I played this game SO much! Omg, still can't believe this
