Product Description
Lets Play! Which player will have the roll of the elusive Mister X? One player will function as Mister X, with the other players being Scotland Yard detectives searching for him throughout Central London. The starting station cards are shuffled and everyone draws one to determine where they will start the game. Every move is either by taxi, underground, or bus. Mister X moves first and writes his move in his travel log, indicating what method of transportation he used but not where he moved. Then, each detective makes their move, cooperating with the other detectives in an effort to close in on Mister X. Mister X only reveals where he is at certain points in the game, and the chase continues until one of the detectives moves to the place where Mister X is. In this case, the team of detectives has won the game. But, if Mister X makes 24 moves without being caught, he himself wins.

4 out of 5 stars Love the new cap!   January 17, 2008
The game is a blast to play and naturally rewards cooperative play. I had the older version of this game and after it was lost, I had to get the new version. While I miss the styling of the old game board, I love the new Mr. X baseball cap that comes with it. Folks may not want to share hair cooties using a common cap so it is best for players to bring their own.


4 out of 5 stars Great game   July 12, 2007

This is a game great for kids over the age of 12. Littlier ones might have problems following the instructions. Fun game overall for those who like a challenge and strategy games!


5 out of 5 stars Excellent boardgame.   January 20, 2007
 4 out of 4 found this review helpful

This is a very well made, enjoyable to play, boardgame. It is a game that requires all players to think and communicate with each other while trying to capture one player, who has been selected to be Mr. X.
Very fun to play again and again.
