Hostage Negotiator: Crime Wave is a stand-alone expansion to the hit solitaire game.

A rash of crime is hitting the city. Most crimes don't require a negotiator. But for the ones that do... you get the call. 

Hostage Negotiator: Crime Wave is completely playable without any other content. So if you don't own the original Hostage Negotiator, you are still getting a fully playable game right out of the box.  Of course, having the original as well really brings out the most in this expansion!

With new Conversation Cards, new Terror Cards, new Pivotal Events, new Abductors, and new Demands that can all be integrated with the original, your Hostage Negotiator experience will be taken to an all new level!

Charlotte ★★★★★

The tension in this one is unreal — every turn you're sweating over whether to play a card or push your luck with the dice. Works great as a stand-alone too, I didn't need the base game to start playing. Lost my first three sessions and still couldn't put it down.

Samuel ★★★★★

Wasn't sure a solitaire game could keep me tense, but the negotiation dice rolls had me genuinely sweating over whether to spend my last conversation point. The new Terror cards change up the pacing nicely, each abductor feels distinct instead of just a reskin. Playing through the crime wave scenari

Eva ★★★★★

The standalone aspect is a huge win—I jumped right into the crime wave without the original game. Each negotiation feels genuinely tense, and the sting of a failed hostage rescue stays with you. Already setting up my next session.
