Inlay Text

Detective is a game of deduction and tactics. It is set in an English country house where the body of the butler, found murdered, has been found dumped on the top of a staircase. Each player takes the role of one of the characters in the game and each of you falls under the suspicion of Scotland Yard. Unimpressed by the Police, you each decide to clear yourselves by finding out who commited the crime, the weapon used, the place of the murder and the killer's motive.
