Dinged a point for "campaign." All four of the Jack the Ripper cases are weaker than a standard standalone case.
Andy Parsons
The Ripper case is off the scale difficult. The fourth part transitions from difficult to annoying, with its heavy opening prompt to focus on the time of the murder alone and to find it out quickly. That's only so if you had deduced the Ripper's identity by the end of chapter three and need this final piece of information merely to confirm your brilliance. And if anyone has managed to find George Hutchinson at a location that isn't in the directory, please geekmail to tell me how. Goldberg and Grady were the originals and the best at this. Their six West End Adventures have some entertaining thematic flourishes: the murder of an actor playing Sherlock, a scandal involving the Prince of Wales, and the murder of a Transylvanian Count. Though for my taste, the last of those might have had more fun with vampirism before dismissing the possibility. All except the final case are well done. A Simple Case of Murder asks us to believe that the many staff of a wealthy household were all deaf and blind. More among the Ripper cases than the West End ones, there are some disappointing failures, either of research or translation. Minister of the Interior instead of Home Secretary, Treasurer instead of Chancellor, quarter penny instead of farthing, Head Inspector instead of Chief Inspector, Then there are the Americanisms - guys, jerks and (argh!) gotten. The Ripper chapters cap it all with some peculiarly worded passages that do suggest poor translation. Space Cowboys has done its usual gorgeous production job. The artwork is also excellent.

Liked it as much as the original box. Some cases are very hard to get right, there are few minor bugs. Nevertheless, great experience. Case/Score: #1:65, #2:50, #3:-20, #4:-35, #5:50, #6:50, #7:65, #8:15, #9:75, #10:15.
