Can Detective: L.A. Crimes be played without the base game?
Several players report playing it standalone; the box text is the only contrary claim.

In practice, yes. You need the base game's time, day and location markers and its tokens, or substitutes, and you read both rulebooks. The box says the base game is required, but one group played it standalone with substitute tokens and paper tracking.
