Mutant City Blues

Mutant City Blues is a supernatural police procedural roleplaying game with a couple of special features. First, it’s built on the Gumshoe system, which bypasses the typical dice rolls for searching a crime scene. Instead, detecting clues at appropriate moments is automatic. It’s what you do with them that’s in question. Second, the game’s setting assumes a portion of the population (and, therefore, a portion of the criminals) have developed mutant powers. But rather than the expected free-for-all, this game dictates that mutant powers manifest in strict categories with scientifically mapped relationships—detailed in the Quade Diagram.
