Mr. Jack is Back! The year is 1888 and gaslights burn bright in the gloomy streets of London, doing their best to hold the darkness at bay. In these shadowed alleys, the devilishly clever 'Jack' attempts to make his escape from the city. London's greatest detectives have gathered to try and track down the cunning criminal, but time runs short for their trap. What's more, Jack himself is impersonating one of the detectives! In Mr. Jack, one player is the titular Jack and the other takes on the role of a diligent detective. The detective’s goal is simple: Catch Jack! Nabbing the slippery crook is easier said than done, however, since he’s disguised himself as one of the investigators trying to hunt him down. The detective must work to deduce which investigator is actually Jack, and must catch him before he can make his escape! The Jack player’s goal is to escape the city of London without getting caught. Jack can either slip out under cover of darkness, or dupe the detective into making a false accusation. But, the detective must act quickly. Darkness is coming, the gaslights are being put out, and night is on Jack's side! This new, revised edition of Mr. Jack, the classic game of deduction and deception, features fresh visuals and a new board layout that casts the familiar London back alleyways into an all-new landscape.
