What is Jack and Detectives?
Jack and Detectives is a digital reimagination of the game of “Werewolf”, the classic party social deduction game. In this rendition, talking is not needed and rules have been simplified to welcome all including Werewolf fans and newcomers interested in social deduction games.

Key differences between Jack & Detectives and other social deduction games

  1. No conversations required
  2. No dropouts (players can play until the end, without having to become spectators in the middle of the game)
  3. A single round is 10 minutes long

Players are divided into "Jack the Ripper" and "Detective" roles. The “Jack” will commit murders without being discovered by the Detective while the Detective must deduce who Jack is.

Game Features
- Extensive online multiplayer modes

  • Ranked matches allow you to play against players from all over the world through random matching
  • Room matches allow you to play exclusively with friends
  • Cross-platform play
- Create your own “meeple” from over 50 different types. A meeple is a unique icon that represents you in the game
