Scotland Yard?

So is this just a fancier/deeper version of Scotland Yard?  I see potential here…would prefer something more original, but I've enjoyed Scotland Yard and would enjoy something deeper.

No, it's an updated edition of a game released in 2011 called "Letters from Whitechapel" burla

Seems quite an appealing game. With a lot of potential, both because of the setting and the investigative part. Anyone who played the original mind sharing his impressions? BGG ratings are kinda high

Also, the concept reminds a little to Fury of Dracula (secret move, investigators closing in, and so on)

This has been my first thought, too. But even if it turns out to be similar to SY, the Ripper twist sounds intriguing. Like you, I loved SY and would certainly love to test this one at a given opportunity.

I used to love the old Scotland yard game, so watching this with interest.

 

Sadly it will prolly take ages for this to be available in the UK

Prolly, but prolly not.
