London, Whitechapel district, 1888
The poor and hapless souls of London live and die on the streets of this overpopulated and run-down slum. The prostitutes, who offer their services to the scum on almost every street corner, form the social dregs of Whitechapel. They are known as "the unfortunates" - and no description could be more apt.
In this place, where all hope seems lost anyway, fate now strikes with merciless severity. A cruel murderer is wreaking havoc in the streets, leaving one unfortunate dead woman after another in his wake. Jack Ripper is here!
In The Whitechapel File, one player takes on the role of Jack the Ripper, while the other players try to track him down as investigators in Victorian Londeon. Jack the Ripper must skilfully out-manoeuvre the investigators in the narrow streets of the Whitechapes district so that he can escape after his horrific murders. The investigators' task is to use logical deduction and their superior numbers to catch Jack before he can strike again and perhaps escape them forever. Will the most famous serial killer in history get away with it again? Or will justice be served this time? It's in your hands!
