Oh and the black tickets can also be used to cross the river on stations 194, 157, 115 & 108, so an alternative escape route that only Mr. X has :-)

Excellent review and explanation. Funny thing is, I had exactly the same impression and experience of the game as a 9- or 10-year-old. I played it often with some friends back in Vienna. Now years later I bought it for my son and can’t wait to play.

Thanks for this video, I played this game today with some friends after 10 years since my last game. I agree with you about tweking the game to make it more enjoyable for everyone. For example, one rule that is not explained in the instructions is: can Mister X go past a detective if he get the bus or underground? I think he shouldn't. In this way, the strategy of the games gets deeper.

Hi, I bought this game for the family at Xmas and want to clarify something in relation to playing the game. Can Mr X go over where a detective is to get to another point. For example, say if a detective is on number 70 on the board, can Mr X get from 87 to 41 where the bus goes past number 70 which is a taxi rank? Also, if the situation was reversed and Mr X was on number 70 and a detective travelled from 87 to 41, would Mr X then be caught or do you have to land on exactly where Mr X is? Thanks Nas

Yes that is called "cutting off" and you CAN move mr X like that by the standard game rules, and u won't lose unless the detective moves to a position mr x occupies! Hope this helps :)

How do you get to round 24? The rule book I have say the game is won by Mr X, and the detectives only get 22 counters (10+8+4) though I have seen other rules with 23 counters (11+8+4). Still, I dont see how you get to round 24?

vishnu sarvagna I was taught that Mister X has access to the pool of tickets at all times. So all remaining tickets left over from other players, and this allowance goes up due the other detectives adding tickets to the pool as they use them.

Thanks for the review! Got this for Christmas today and although due to Covid I can’t really play it yet I’m looking forward to it. Maybe you can tweak it so that Mr X can only get new tickets when he reveals himself, or that the detectives can share their tokens to help the others if they run out?

Great review! Out of interest, have you ever played Whitehall Mystery? It seems quite similar to Scotland Yard, and I wondered if you thought the different limitations on each player made it a better or worse game? Personally, I've never played either, so currently trying to decide which of the two to buy. Thanks. And keep up the great work!

The game instruction manual states that the only other way to win (besides landing on the spot Mr. X occupies at the time you land on it) is if all the detectives basically have surrounded him and Mr. X cannot move to a station that is unoccupied. So basically if Mr. X is in a gridlock.

Well, the instructions of the Ravensburger edition say otherwise. Mr.X is visible at all times and only disappears on moves 3, 8, 13 etc. At turns 3, 8, 13 etc. he becomes invisible and he also becomes invisible when playing the black card. Either the instructions are mistranslated from German language to English or this review is exactly counter-rules. Does anyone else have this issue, while listening to this review?

He shows 5 colored pieces, then goes on this half-assed rambling explanation of what to do if there are 2-3 other extra players, or if you're lacking 2-3 other players I don't know. I have no idea what he's trying to say from 3:08-3:48.
