Jack the Ripper
In 1888, aristocratic partygoers are trapped in a dark warehouse during a scavenger hunt. One of them is secretly Jack the Ripper, while the others must identify and stop him before he eliminates them. Players use scavenged item cards, special abilities, and deception to protect themselves, attack opponents, and investigate their identities. Bluffing, questioning, card combinations, and careful observation all play a role. Jack wins by eliminating the other partygoers; the remaining partygoers win if they expose and destroy him first.
