Mr. Jack



This is a really fun, yet challenging deduction game for two players. One player assumes the role of Jack the Ripper, disguised as one of the eight characters.  The other player assumes the role of the investigator. In Mr. Jack, the investigator is tasked with unmasking Mr. Jack (a.k.a. the Ripper) before he can escape the city of Whitechapel. If he succeeds in escaping, the investigator loses the game.

Mr. Jack is a very beautifully designed game. My wife and I absolutely love the game play, and the different roles of the characters.  It is easy to learn, a fairly quick game, and one of the best in our collection.

  1. Could you review the expansion for this game, or Mr. Jack in New York, or Mr. Jack Pocket?

    1. I haven't yet been able to try out the other versions. Mr. Jack in New York has definitely been on my radar for a while, as has the Extension for the first game. Both are definitely a possibility, though I am not sure about the Pocket edition.
