About this deal

To use a character, a player can either move the corresponding character token or use the character’s special ability. The character card is then placed face down on the table. Seen characters: the characters that are on an illuminated street hex (hex adjoining a lit gaslight) are seen, since they can be seen by anyone in the district, any passer-by. The same rule applies if two characters are on adjoining hexes, even in the darkness. The covered manhole tiles prevent entry to or exit from the sewers at their location. Shut-off Gaslight Hex/lit Gaslight Tile

All characters are placed suspect side up on the board, along with manholes, lit gaslights and police cordons. During the night, some of the gaslights go out, one by one. Remove the gaslight tile with the current turn number on it and put it away for the rest of the game. (Only four gaslight tiles are numbered.

Setup

The character tokens, the covered manhole tiles, and the lit gaslight tiles are set on the board in accordance with the following picture. game board picturing the Whitechapel district and divided into hexagonal areas (or hexes). The right section of the board features a turn counter section. Sergeant Goodley: Move 1 to 3 spaces. Must use 3 moves to move any characters towards him before or after moving.

Darkness and light: the board represents the Whitechapel district, with its shadowy alleys. Some of the gaslights are lit and all the adjoining hexes are considered as illuminated, all the other hexes are in darkness. Passing over an open manhole cover allows, for 1 movement point, to move towards any other open manhole cover. Official rules in PDFThe Detective flips them over so that their “Innocent” sides are up. It’s important that their locations remain unchanged. Note: after everything has been set up at the beginning of the game, four characters can be seen and four can't. John Watson: Move 1 to 3 spaces then choose his final direction. All characters on the line (except Watson) are visible. When a character is on (or moves through) an open manhole, he/she can use 1 movement point to go to any other hex with an open manhole. The Detective flips them over to their "Innocent" side, without changing their location. The Witness card remains as it is until the next call for witnesses.

The Detective chooses a character from the 4 cards shown and uses it (moves the corresponding character token or uses its special ability.) The used character card is then turned face down. The gaslights are lit when a lit gaslight tile is placed on them. They illuminate all the adjacent street hexes. If there is no lit gaslight tile on the hex, then the gaslight is out.After that, some gaslights maybe shut off. Remove the lit token equal to the round number from the game. Unseen characters: the characters that are not on an illuminated hex (lit by gaslight or Watson's lantern) or on a street hex adjacent to another character are considered to be unseen. Note that as the game starts, four characters are in shadow and the four others are in the light - all the character tokens are set with the suspect side up. The detective chooses a character among the four and plays it (he moves the character token and/or uses the character's special ability). The character card is then turned over and placed face down. The golden circle indicates when to use the special ability of a character depending on the shape of the circle:

The character tokens, the covered manhole tiles, the lit gaslight tiles are set on the board as shown in picture 1. Reminder: note that this is only possible during a turn when the Witness card's Not Seen side is face up. The Detective flips them over so that their “Innocent” sides are up. Again, it’s important that their locations remain unchanged.

Those two characters are considered as seen since they are close enough to see each other in spite of the shadows.
