Scotland Yard Master

One player acts as a fugitive moving secretly across a map of London while the other players cooperate as detectives trying to land on the same space to capture them. Movement uses taxi, bus and subway routes; the fugitive’s transport choices are usually revealed while their exact location is shown only at intermittent checkpoints. The fugitive gains new action options that alter movement and board state. An accompanying app provides optional tools for detectives, including radio-tower hints that indicate proximity, witness queries, a 3D board view, and pass-and-play support with a concealed PIN for the fugitive to prevent accidental discovery.
