Fairlake Bank Heist Case: Can You Crack The Case?

The Fairlake Bank Heist Case: A Cold Case Cracker Mystery

This game challenges players to take on the role of a detective team and crack an unsolved bank heist case from 2005. On Thursday, January 27th of that year, a group of three armed perpetrators entered the Broadway Savings and Loan in Fairlake and carried out a meticulously planned heist, making off with over $2 million from safety deposit boxes and cash drawers.

The original suspects investigated included Austin Woods (the pilot), Neil Turner (the bank manager), Alex Hartman (the hacker), Charles Gibson (the professor), and Henry Pratt (the ex-con). All five provided statements and fingerprints, but there was insufficient evidence to definitively identify the mastermind behind the heist and three related murders. The case eventually went cold, with the culprit still at large.

A year and a half later, a breakthrough occurred when detectives arrested notorious criminal Jimmy Hobbs, a smuggler and trafficker of stolen goods. Hobbs was found in possession of a gold watch stolen during the 2005 bank robbery. Detective Vicki P. seized the opportunity to question Hobbs in prison, gaining valuable information about the heist, as well as obtaining a map and cipher used in its planning.

This evidence has reignited the investigation, and players must now put on their detective hats to uncover the mastermind's identity and bring justice to the victims. The game is played across four phases, with each phase presenting unique investigation goals and challenges that require close attention to detail, critical thinking, and a keen eye for clues.

The game's replayability is enhanced by the integration of technology. Players will need to use a mobile device or computer to enter codes and validate their decisions, unlocking new leads and progressing the investigation. Additionally, an audio tip line is available to provide guidance when players hit a roadblock.

Whether you choose to take on the case solo or assemble a team of detectives, this game offers an immersive, interactive experience that is perfect for crime TV enthusiasts, escape room experts, board game aficionados, and anyone who loves a good mystery. With twists and turns you'll never see coming, the Fairlake Bank Heist Case promises an engaging and unforgettable crime-solving adventure.

So, do you have what it takes to crack the case and uncover the mastermind behind this daring heist? Grab your magnifying glass, sharpen your deductive skills, and get ready to dive into the world of Cold Case Crackers.
