MS Batory

A transatlantic cruise from Gdynia to New York turns into a murder-mystery-style investigation when a countess's priceless jewels are stolen. The thief is one of the passengers or crew members aboard the ship. Players take the roles of detectives and investigate thirteen suspects, each defined by traits such as gender, age, and role. A three-dimensional ship with three decks and numerous rooms provides the game board. During the movement phase, characters are moved to complete tasks and gain question cards. In the investigation phase, players use cards showing traits, locations, or numbers to ask targeted questions and eliminate suspects. The first detective to identify the hidden thief wins.
