Well, turns out the rest of the world does, too. PlayMonster is entering into a strategic licensing agreement with ViacomCBS to launch a new Criminal Minds-themed game. Criminal Minds Unknown Subject, an adult party game, will feature characters and nail-biting crime-solving from the popular TV show. Players will have to think like a criminal in order to catch the killer among them in this social, interactive party game.

For nearly two decades, Criminal Minds has been making people turn to their partners and say, “I could do this!” Now, this fast-paced, social dedication game gives them a chance to try their hand at crime-solving. Players will play as their favorite FBI Behavioral Analysis Unit agent to build a profile and catch the Unsub, or play as an Unsub and hide their crimes to escape authorities. You can say whatever you like, but it’s up to the rest of the players to determine if you’re telling the truth or not. 

Perfect for eight players, Criminal Minds Unknown Subject comes with eight character cards, 81 action cards, 12 special authorization tiles, and one game board. The game, which offers a different play experience each time, will be available soon.
