I'm still new to this game, but after a couple tries vs. Private investigator I found it really hard to beat him. All and any strategy tips are welcome, thanks!

Hi,
Yes it's hard.
I wrote some tips there:

My last solo game (turns 1~14):
https://boardgamearena.com/archive/repl ... s=84207926; which is an excellent start. Since I have strong green, I carefully count when I will have 13 green on the inspector, and since I was fine, I keeped two greens in the card row since green will not be a problem on the inspector. Once I do that, I got plenty of time to do the three other colors.
On my second last solo game (turn 18):
https://boardgamearena.com/archive/repl ... s=84207926; I got the +3 red when i gain red that I played around slowly. So my plan was to be at 7/8 in red, gain 3 red, gain 3 bonus red, which makes 13. At the same time I prepared black to later be at 7/8, gain 3 black, and have 3 discount with the black card i played. And after that, with 3 card row red/black I got mostly the game under control.
My third last solo game:
https://boardgamearena.com/archive/repl ... s=84207926; got an extremely bad start. I decided to stack yellow and green (even if i moved to the magnificient glass) to play the yellow card in the card row and do my black with that. But outside of that this game is a total mess. You can see how work a more normal game with it. Still the goal was to do 2 green cards and get three forbidden knowledge.
