Created by PULL THE PIN GAMES

An expansion to Good Cop Bad Cop® where your cunning and heroics in one game get you promoted in the next.

Latest Updates from Our Project:

Zombies Expansion Now Live, New Promoted Rules, and NRB Video
9 months ago – Tue, Jul 11, 2023 at 07:14:55 AM

Well officers... we've launched 15 projects on Kickstarter but this time we're giving Gamefound a go. We just went live with a campaign for the Zombies expansion to Good Cop Bad Cop!

If your friend has ever taken revenge on you from the last game by shooting you immediately in the next one, you know player elimination in Good Cop Bad Cop can be a little annoying. Well now, would-be eliminated players come back as ZOMBIES! The zombies are still be able to win but it will be a little more difficult. They'll probably want to bite another officer or two to help put the odds in their favor...

You can see 4 perspectives from the Hairy Game Lords to see what they thought of the new expansion:

No Rolls Barred Playthrough

Did you see No Rolls Barred playing Good Cop Bad Cop: Promoted on their channel? As usual, it is absolutely HILARIOUS!

Promoted Rule Change

As proposed in the previous Update, we did remove the 5 player game requirement from Promoted. Now you just start playing and whenever you get 2 Medals, you draw a Promotion card. Of course, since you got the 1st Edition of Promoted, YOU can still play with the 5 games if you want, but you can also play with the new rules too. We recommend you ignore the point values on your Medals if you play with the new rules. Here are the new official rules.

Proposed Rule Change, Zombies Expansion, and Board Game Arena
over 1 year ago – Wed, Nov 16, 2022 at 04:30:35 PM

Greetings officers!

Today we're proposing a few Promoted rule changes, we have news on the upcoming Zombies expansion, and we're sharing how you can play Good Cop Bad Cop on Board Game Arena.

Promoted Rule Change

We've heard from many of you that you LOVE the Promoted expansion, but you're finding it hard to get players to commit to playing 5 games. Sound familiar? To help with this conundrum, we're proposing the following rule changes:

  • There's no more 5-game series. You just play until you want to stop. This means you can ignore the points on the Medals.
  • You can always turn in 2 Medals for a Promotion.
  • You can have up to 2 Promotions, but when you get a 3rd that you want to keep, you may swap it out for one of your existing Promotions.

The idea is that you can play a base game of GCBC and then hand out the medals at the end of it. When you do that, you can say that two medals can be traded in for a Promotion for those who want to play again. Then for the next game, you take out the Promotion deck and add in the Promoted Equipment. It's a much easier introduction to the expansion without requiring a 5-game commitment.

How would you feel if we made these changes official and put them in the next print run of the expansion? Please post in the comments, email us at [email protected], or send us a Kickstarter message.


Zombies Expansion

We're removing player elimination from Good Cop Bad Cop with the new expansion, Zombies! You can follow the upcoming Gamefound campaign early and, if you do, you get a free playmat to help organize everything in the middle of the table. And don't worry, the mat and Zombies expansion fit nicely in the Big Box introduced in this Promoted campaign.

Zombies are coming...

Good Cop Bad Cop on Board Game Arena

You can also now play Good Cop Bad Cop online on Board Game Arena for free! Currently, you can play with the base game or with the Zombies expansion and we'll continue adding more expansions and content to it over time. Plus, the Commissioner's Cup Good Cop Bad Cop Tournament starts on there in a couple weeks where you can finally prove you're the BEST at this game.

As always, we'd love to hear from you for ANY reason with a comment, message, or an email to [email protected].

Zombie Equipment Ideas
about 2 years ago – Tue, Feb 08, 2022 at 01:41:59 PM

We haven't done any kind of official announcement yet, but we've mentioned it around the water cooler that the fourth expansion to Good Cop Bad Cop® will be called Zombies! Dwayne Biddix has just agreed to illustrate this one like he has the previous versions of GCBC so we're super excited. Our loyal agents in our Facebook Group and Discord Server have generated some ideas for equipment that they want to see in the game but we could use your help too.

Guidelines:

  • They should be physical objects (chainsaw, shotgun, zombie serum, etc).
  • They should be something you might find useful in a zombie apocalypses.
  • Their name should be less than 20 characters.

What equipment would you like to see in Good Cop Bad Cop®: Zombies?

Tabletopia, Tips, and More

Greetings officers!

We have some news today to share so set down your defibrillator, grab a cup of coffee, and twirl those mustaches if you have 'em.

Tips for Promoted

Ryan and Bethany did a wonderful review of Good Cop Bad Cop™ with the Promoted expansion and they had a couple tips we wanted to share with you to implement at your next game night:

  • If you only have time for one game of GCBC but you still want to play with some Promoted goodness, just randomly deal everyone one promotion card at the beginning of the game to give them a unique power.
  • If you didn't spring for the deluxe version with a bag for your medals, you can put them in the box lid and draw from there. It helps keep your table a little more organized.

Here's their full review:

Tabletopia

Good Cop Bad Cop™ is now available on Tabletopia for you to play digitally! Here are links:

We're Back on Kickstarter

Also, we're back on Kickstarter with a second expansion to The Zorro™ Dice Game! This is a Yahtzee-style dice roller in the Zorro universe where each expansion ratchets up the difficulty, so you can play with non-gamers with the base game and challenge experienced gamers with the expansions. It also plays 1-8 players with expansions, so that, plus the variable difficulties, might make it the easiest game to get to your table. 

Also, since you've backed us before, you will get a discount on shipping by logging into our mobile app with your Kickstarter email address and using the promo code you find there -- the more you've backed from us, the bigger the discount! Lastly, we have a few deluxe upgrades for Good Cop Bad Cop™: Promoted campaign that we'll put up in the pledge manager of that campaign in case you need any GCBC goodies. 

Now that's enough lollygagging, officers. It's time for us to get back on the street!

We hope to see you there in the germ-free digital world!
