- Jack & Detectives is a new multiplayer social deduction game
- The game is inspired by the popular party game Werewolf
- Solve murders or commit them depending on your role
As a seasoned gamer with a soft spot for social deduction games and a deep appreciation for classics like Werewolf, I find myself intrigued by the newcomer in town – Jack & Detectives. With its simplified rules and emphasis on silent gameplay, it promises to bring an engaging experience even for those who aren’t as familiar with the genre.
The new detective game ‘Jack & Detectives’ is now accessible for both mobile devices and PC through Steam. Similar to ‘Werewolf,’ a party-based social deduction game, ‘Jack & Detectives’ puts you in a role where you can either unravel mysteries or create them. Currently in Early Access on Steam, the game is offering a 40% discount today as part of its release celebration. The mobile version of the game is available for free.
This freshly minted detective-themed game based on Werewolf has been designed with simplicity in mind, making it accessible for players of all backgrounds to join the excitement. Unlike its party game predecessor, you won’t have to engage in chit-chat. The creator actually labels it as a silent social deduction game.
At the start of each turn, you and your fellow players will assume either the role of the detective or Jack the Ripper. In the character of Jack the Ripper, your objective is to carry out a murder without being apprehended by the detective. Conversely, the detective’s mission is to discover who among the players is the culprit behind the murders.
The gameplay involves a turn-based system where detectives target suspects at corners while Jack the Ripper tries to shift blame onto someone else for his misdeeds. Each round spans ten minutes, unlike some party games that limit player participation, this game allows everyone to play until the end, rather than having players step back and watch as the game progresses.
As a gamer, here’s my take: There are various multiplayer options available for me to jump into. I can engage in competitive ranked battles against gamers worldwide or organize Room matches for me and my pals. To top it off, cross-platform compatibility means I can play with friends no matter what device they’re using. Game on!
In this game, you have the freedom to personalize your in-game character, often referred to as your “meeple.” You can choose from numerous color options and tokens to make it uniquely yours. Jack & Detectives is now accessible on the App Store, Google Play, and Steam. For more information about the game, explore its page on any of these platforms or check out the official website.
