Here's the fastest way to jump into your first game of New York Noir:

• Start with the demo case (The Past is a Crooked Game) which is a gentle introduction to New York Noir.
• You can download it from: https://nynoir.org/case/crookedpast/.
• On that page, if you plan to read the case book on a screen, download "ThePastIsACrookedGame_soloForScreen_letter.pdf" but if you plan to print it, download "ThePastIsACrookedGame_twocol_letter.pdf" (53 pages).
• The fastest way to get started playing a case is to use the online directories and map; those are available at: https://nynoir.org/map/.
• If you want to watch a tutorial on how to use those tools see: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLv-7yM2fCAw0bg3XVMSWYJhZp2AEipGMo.
• You can also watch a full playthrough of the demo case here (using printed materials): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5gGfcL7Xtb8.
• The rules and other guides for New York Noir are on the downloads page.
• There are a couple of sheets you SHOULD print out from the case pdf or from the bookshelf page, so that you can write on them: One copy of the Case Tracking Sheet, and two copies of the Case Day Log from that download page.
• You won't need the other files on that page if you play using the online map/search tools but you can grab them on that page if you want (don't try to print them out they aren't finalized yet).
