Elementary Detection In A Large Game Of Mr Jack
In this game, which is shown here on a grander scale with the busts instead of the regular playing pieces, one of the two players will take on the role of Jack The Ripper.
The other will be trying to hunt Jack down and bring him to justice - but it isn't going to be easy as he is quick and agile and able to hide amongst the populace. The player on the hunt also only gets one guess a game!
You will have to try and use logic and deduction skills in order to make sure you pick the right villain.
I’m not sure about this game! It’s one thing to produce a ‘horror’ style game based upon fictional characters and genres, but, not actual serial killers who existed! Imagine the furore if someone suggested making a game based on the ‘Moors murderers’?
