Rummy with an FBI case file and one card that decides when the hand ends.

Rummy, but you are an FBI agent building a case against two bank robbers. You meld evidence cards into location groups, lay off onto what is already on the table, and race to close out the hand. The Ted Hinton card is the twist that stops this from being plain old rummy.
Who it's for
Card players who grew up with rummy and want a version with a sharper end-game decision. Best at two.
Not for you if…
You want something structurally new. Underneath the theme this is still rummy, and the theme sits lightly on the mechanics.
Vibe's take
Familiar and comfortable, with a constant nagging question of whether to cash in or push one more turn.
