With this game, which combines the strategy of a card game with the elements of a detective mystery, the dark case of Jack the Ripper comes to light again: As the victims are revealed one by one, gather clues, provide alibis for suspects, and in the end, accuse the one you believe is the maniacal killer of London. Will you succeed where Scotland Yard failed?

We have enjoyed it more as a pair than as a group of four, as the cards are not distributed quickly and strategy plays a bigger role. Very good construction quality. I would recommend it to those who love classic deck games with a twist - because that's exactly what it is, as the outcome of the game is mainly based on luck. And for the same reason, as well as the numerous rules that take a long time to explain the first time (or if you haven't played it in a long time), it failed to "absorb" the group and not have a lull. On the other hand, and this is probably its main advantage, it is quite good for a pair, which usually is not enough to play board games that "require" at least 4 people to be interesting.
And this and the other are essentially puzzles with assumptions. They are unnecessarily complicated to the point where you get bored to death just to explain what's going on. If I have to do a PhD to explain a board game, forget it.
The only star is for the excellent quality of construction. It is very well-made. It simply has more value as furniture than as entertainment.
Great game!!! Excellent idea, really beautiful cards and each batch is different. It is a game that essentially reminds me of rummy (a card game for those who don't know) but only borrows one or two mechanisms. Everything else is extra. Event cards, different scoring depending on the result, mysterious atmosphere, and a wonderful theme (Jack the Ripper). It has a lot of strategy and the more you play it, the more you understand its depth. Flawless!!!!!
Very nice game with very difficult and complex rules. It is not a game that a group will gather and play casually. It takes some time to explain and play a few "guiding games" before you can start playing. It is partly convenient to be played by a stable group of people who already know it/have played it before.
There is a small "issue" that when you play the game with more than 2 people, it turns into a game of luck (rather than strategy) because the deck is distributed very quickly and whoever gets the "Jack Escapes" wins. Statistically, it will quickly fall to someone, especially if you are 4 people.
For someone who wants to start playing after 10 minutes of opening it, it is not recommended. Difficult rules and the booklet inside do not help much, they mostly push you to abandon it. It is preferable to start by watching a video on YouTube in which they actually play and not just explain the cards.
It takes a little reminder to learn the rules, but once you learn them, it is a very enjoyable and quite competitive game. Don't be fooled by the scenario, it is a card game
Amazing game for two people!! The rules are a bit difficult to explain, but it's worth the effort to learn them... There are also videos on YouTube. It's simply addictive... Warning!!!
Amazing, high-quality, top, just what you need for 2 people (but 3 will enjoy it too). Don't explain it to people who haven't played a board game because it will seem too difficult to them.
REALLY USELESS.
Before you buy, take a look at the instructions, which are really all over the place! It's worth watching the video on YouTube too! But before you buy!!!
Very nice and quite addictive. It has kept me and my friends entertained for hours. Its only drawback is that it has slightly difficult rules, but once you learn them, it is very easy.
It is for 4 people only, a clever game that requires cunning to win.
