Hey Seán!! Great to hear from you man. How are things? Delighted that you found our video. I guess you were pretty surprised when you saw it was me! haha. Hope it helped you learn the game. Mr. Jack Pocket is a fun one!
Hi Pat and Glai; Thanks for the video! One of my new game designs is going to be detective-like but I am trying to decide how much deduction-difficulty I would like in it. I did not hear about Mr. Jack Pocket before, but it is pretty clever and has a surprising amount of strategy and deduction for a short game. Thank you!
Hi Ken! It's great to hear from you. Mr. Jack Pocket has very simple mechanics, but it is very compelling and a surprising amount of replay value. I guess because it is so short, but we do find ourselves going back for more straight after finishing a game. Good luck with the game design!
@@AllAboardBoardgames It can be played with 2 players. Easier play with 3-4-5 players.Consider the fact that you(player 1)have the patience to control 4 characters hunting the Dracula (player2).

@@AXRISTEROS Yes, I guess remembering which character has been to which location would require a bit of care, but I think we could handle it. Sounds fun!
Thanks Bora. We have found that actually the detectives win most of the time when we play. When we played this one for the video, it was the exception. I think it is quite balanced, but in our games the detectives tend to win slightly more.
Pat!! So delighted I found this video! Bought this game a couple of weeks ago and couldn’t figure it out. What a delight to find your excellent video!

I like the thematic soundtrack :)
Thanks Michael! I was delighted when I came across that one. It was exactly what I was looking for, for this game.
Great video of a fun fast game.
I still prefer Scotland Yard and Fury of Dracula mainly.
Good job guys! 👍
I have been interested in trying Fury of Dracula for quite a while now but haven't gotten around to trying it. Does it work well at 2 players?

@@AXRISTEROS Oh ok. So one of the players would have to control multiple characters. I guess that wouldn't be too big a problem.

Good review, but i read on several board game review portals, that basically, you cannot win as a detective..

Actually, you were right 👍🏻.. thanks for the review
