## FAQ
### How many players can participate?
The game is super flexible, playable by 2 to 15 people. The more people, the more ideas to solve the mysteries!

### How long does a game session last?
The time is quite variable, from 2 minutes to over 3 hours! It really depends on how quickly the group can solve each case and how many cards you decide to play.

### Is the game difficult to learn?
Not at all! The rules are very straightforward. One player reads the card, the others ask 'yes' or 'no' questions. The challenge lies in solving the mystery, not in learning how to play.

### Do you need a moderator to play?
Yes, one player needs to be the 'moderator' to read the card and know the answer. But don't worry, being the moderator is easy and fun too!

### What does 'Extensive Language Dependency' mean?
It means you need to be able to read the cards in Portuguese to play. If the cards come in another language, you'll need to translate everything to enjoy the game.

### Are the themes too heavy?
The game deals with real crimes, so the themes can be dark and disturbing for some. It's recommended for teens and adults who are comfortable with this type of content.

### Can I play with children?
The recommendation is for teens and adults, as the themes are based on real crimes and can be scary or heavy for children.
