One of the two players represents Jack the Ripper, who will be one of the 8 characters on the board. This player knows the identity of this character and his goal is to flee from the district as soon as possible (or avoid being accused for eight turns). The other player represents an independent investigator (not represented on the board) who tries to guess the identity of Jack. But he can make only one accusation during the game!
During each turn the players move the characters, using their special powers, placing them either in shadow or light. At the end of each turn, the witnesses declare if Jack is visible (in light, or adjacent to another character) or not (alone in the shadows). This allows the investigator to know which characters are innocent. This continues as the investigator tries to eliminate suspects while Jack tries to escape. Intuition, logic and cold blood will be necessary for each of the two participants.

Mr. Jack is exclusively published by Hurrican, all printings of Mr. Jack are from Hurrican and distributed by other companies
Only 250 copies of the Neuroludic version were printed. The components in the game are language independent, but Neuroludic's rules are only in French. Hurrican Games was essentially founded to publish a larger distribution of this game. As the new version contains rules in English, French, German, and Dutch, the name was changed to Mr. Jack, a name that works in any of the languages and to avoid confusion with NekoCorp's Whitechapel.
Resized copies of the character list taken from the rule book. 2 copies (one for each player) appear on the one page. Designed to be printed on an A4 page.
Includes setup, turn order, victory conditions and movement rules. It does not include character special abilities, which are already documented in other summaries.
