*** The companion app to the board game Scotland Yard Master for 2–6 players, ages 10 and up (can only be used in conjunction with the board game!) *** IMPORTANT: The board game itself is not available in English! As many fans have imported the board game we’ve included the English language into the app as a fan service. Enjoy! Scotland Yard Master is the new development in the world-famous classic board game Scotland Yard, which was named Game of the Year in 1983. Together with the board game, this app offers a completely new and even more exciting way to play. The detectives are on the cutting edge of technology and even hotter on the heels of Mr X. They will find all the important information in the digital control centre: Which modes of transport has Mr X travelled by so far? When will he show himself again? What special actions can be used? You can select mobile phone tracking, for example, and point the smartphone or tablet’s camera at the four radio masts on the game board. Green, yellow or red radio waves will indicate whether or not Mr X is nearby. You can also question witnesses at important buildings across the city. The camera comes into play again, showing Tower Bridge, the Houses of Parliament and St Paul’s Cathedral in 3D. Witnesses will reveal whether Mr X is or has recently been there. Furthermore, the detectives can determine his possible locations by analysing his previous moves, or by measuring the distance between Mr X and the nearest radio mast. But if you think you’ve already got Mr X in the bag, you can think again. With his new escape option, the helicopter, he’s as cunning as ever. He can also win the game by reaching two of five pre-determined rendezvous points. The innovative combination of the classic board game and digital gaming fun guarantees an engrossing experience for the whole family!
