Mr. Jack

1888 - London - Whitechapel district. The night covers the dark alleys with its dark cloak. Jack slips into the shadows ...

The fine flower of the investigators of the time came together to capture him before he took advantage of the darkness to finally disappear. The trap is closing in on him little by little ... But Jack is clever. He usurped the identity of one of the investigators ... Will the others be able to unmask him?

Aim of the game :

The objective of the player "Jack" is to manage to escape the investigator before dawn or to leave the district by taking advantage of the darkness. The objective of the "investigator" player is to find out what identity Jack is hiding under and arrest him before dawn.

Rules :

Eight investigators have come together to track down the elusive Jack. Jack, very clever, hides under the identity of one of them… By successive deductions and by placing the characters in the shade or in the light, the player must find under which identity is hidden the infamous Jack and try to capture it. His opponent, Jack, is doing everything possible to delay the investigation. He even tries to take advantage of the darkness to permanently leave the premises! Box contents:
