Sherlock Holmes Consulting Detective: Jack the Ripper & West End Adventures

Look up the name in the London Directory to get the map-style address (e.g. 42 NW), then read the corresponding chapter/lead number in the current case book for that address; leads are organized by neighbourhood and number. (pp. 5–6)

Place the newspaper dated for the case and all earlier newspapers next to the map, and players have free, unlimited access to the case's newspapers on their turns. (pp. 9, 7)

Use the travel-time scale on the map to check suspect movements and alibis, but the players’ own travel time is never counted. (p. 4)

The group may follow as many leads as they wish during the investigation, but on a player’s turn they may read only a single lead; if a chosen location has no corresponding paragraph, pick another lead. (p. 9)

The players may stop following leads whenever they choose, at which point they proceed to the Questions section, then read Holmes’ Solution and score the case. (p. 10)

Add points from the questions, then compare the number of leads you followed to Holmes’; subtract 5 points for each lead you followed beyond Holmes or add 5 points for each lead fewer, and note Holmes’ score is always 100. (p. 10)
