Description

1888, in London. The torpor created by the recent murders in Whitechapel has not reached East End punters. While a new assassination is announced by the police, who refuse to reveal the sordid details to the press, the customers of the pub "the White Boar" embark on a day of slightly crazy bets. Their but? Bet on Jack the Ripper's new package.

In this competitive game of deduction and betting, players embody customers of the pub "The White Boar" who have organized some special bets. They will be able, throughout the day, to obtain crucial information on the circumstances of the murder, by bribing their informant, other players or the police. At betting times, they must use deduction and daring, while skillfully managing their supply of Beer tokens, to make the most worthy bets!
