About Jack & Detectives - A Silent Social Detection Game -

Jack the Ripper is hiding among us. Can you find him?



In this turn-based detection game, two teams face off against each other: Jack the Ripper and the detectives.
Jack has to get away with murder without being found out by the detectives, who in turn need to find out who he is.
Unlike other detection games, you can't talk with the other players in Jack & Detectives, and you must figure out the truth based only on their actions.
Players cannot get eliminated, so everyone gets to enjoy the game to its end. Furthermore, since a game only last ten minutes, you don't need to commit a lot of time just to play.

Jack: Commit murders without being found out.



A serial killer lurking in the shadows. In order to win, he must make sure he isn't chosen during the voting phase.

Detectives: Find Jack, who is hidden among us.



Private detectives hired by the London police. In order to win, they must correctly vote Jack out during the voting phase.

Jack maniac: Muddy the waters so that Jack isn't found.



A maniac whose allegiance lies with Jack the Ripper. He wins if Jack wins, even if he gets voted out himself.

The detectives must plan their moves to corner the suspect among them!



At the start of each game, players are assigned a role at random.
Then, everyone places their token on a London tile of their choosing.

Jack must trick them and frame one of them!



Once they have done so, night will fall, and Jack the Ripper will commit his first murder. (In certain cases, there will be no murder during the first night)

Vote to choose whom to arrest!



The detectives located near the crime scene will become suspects. Who's on justice's side? Who's the murderer among us?
After the second murder, the voting phase starts. Everyone has to vote for the person that they think is secretly Jack the Ripper.
This is where the real battle of wits between the detectives and Jack starts.

✦ AI summary

Jack & Detectives offers quick, easy-to-learn social deduction gameplay that keeps players engaged with short 10-minute matches, though some find it too simplistic and limited in player interaction options. The game shows promise with solid core mechanics but suffers from technical issues including startup errors, a lack of chat features, audio glitches, and polish problems that detract from the experience.

Jack & Detectives by Curiouspark is a ten-minute game that offers a simple approach to the social deduction genre. The core gameplay revolves around players working together to identify the villain, Jack or Jack the Maniac. While the mechanics are easy to grasp, the game's simplicity may not appeal to those seeking more complex strategies. The absence of a chat feature further limits player interaction, which is an odd choice for a social deduction game. The audio features a skipping voice effect that some players may find distracting while trying to play. The game also requires Google services, which may restrict players in certain regions like China from playing. Additionally, some typos and hiding the quit button at the bottom of the settings menu may frustrate some users. https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3329289621 Jack & Detectives offers an offline solo mode, allowing players to engage in deduction challenges without relying on an internet connection or other players. Furthermore, the game supports varying group sizes from 4 to 6 players and features different maps to explore, providing some flexibility and replayability to the overall experience. h…

It's a fun whodunit game. Games typically last about 10 minutes, so you can play many in a sitting. Very easy to learn the game. Not sure if there's a bug, but something is up with the join room part. Not sure if it is one or just people aren't playing that mode yet. It gets addictive. Already played 15 matches on the first day.

Abandonware. Currently unplayable as game returns "Unexpected error" on title screen.

Great fun and great potential. Rough around the edges but great core gameplay.
