Mr. Jack
In Mr. Jack, one of the two players represents Jack the Ripper, who will be one of the eight characters on the board. This player knows which character is Mr. Jack, and his goal is to flee from the district as soon as possible (or avoid being accused for eight turns). The other player represents an independent investigator (not represented on the board) who tries to guess the identity of Jack — but he can make only one accusation during the game!
What is Mr. Jack
In Mr. Jack, one of the two players represents Jack the Ripper, who will be one of the eight characters on the board. This player knows which character is Mr. Jack, and his goal is to flee from the district as soon as possible (or avoid being accused for eight turns). The other player represents an independent investigator (not represented on the board) who tries to guess the identity of Jack — but he can make only one accusation during the game!
During each turn, the players move the characters, using their special powers and placing them either in shadow or light. At the end of each turn, the witnesses declare whether Jack is visible — that is, in light or adjacent to another character — or not (alone in the shadows). This allows the investigator to know which characters are innocent. As the turns progress, the investigator tries to eliminate suspects while Jack tries to escape. Intuition, logic, and cold blood will be necessary for each of the two participants.

What the community says about Mr. Jack
[ESP] Juego de deducción para 2 de aproximadamente una hora, las veces que lo jugué me pareció entretenido pero dejó la colección porque casi no se jugaba.
2 jugadores, tablero uno hace de jack y el otro tiene que intentar piyarlo. Necesario que los 2 tengan el mismo nivel de juego. Me ha gustado mucho
Very nicely produced, all the components are great, great quality. Only played once, it lasted about five minutes, 2 turns, and I escaped. It seems as if you don't have many chances...

No comprar. No me ha gustado
Genial para 2 personas. Juego que tiene algo de deducción, un pelín de faroleo y muchas gestión de movimientos. Fácil de explicar y de jugar y con una duración de menos de una hora es un excelente candidato para jugar en pareja. Dicen que está desequilibrado a favor de Jack, pero aun así se arregla echando dos partidas una con Jack y otra con el inspector.
Players: 2.
Juego de deducción para 2, me decepcionó un poco, aunque es un juego para jugar con los mas peques
