The Precinct is a fun indie game where you get to fill the shoes of an upcoming rookie in the police department. There are plenty of cases for you to investigate, ranging from parking violations and petty theft to homicide and burglaries. Apart from cases, you can simply go on patrolling rounds and arrest criminals committing crimes on the streets.
There is a whole variety of crimes that you can investigate and collect evidence before putting away the criminal. One such investigation that will have you scavenging across various locations on the map is to find all the stolen Averno City Museum’s artifacts. However, if you’re unaware of the locations where these artifacts are hidden, it can take quite a lot of time to retrieve all the stolen pieces.
Here’s everything you need to know about all the artifacts in The Precinct.
