Scotland Yard - OFZE Edition


Announcement: July 10, 2021
Due to reconstruction at the original hide location, a new hideout is chosen by Mr. X.
So if you want to find this new location, you will have to download the new cartridge from the WIG site.

Mr.X has been seen in Dronten. He has valuable information for us. You need to catch him.
You are the only agent with the skills to do this.

You start at station 1.

Yellow stations can be reached and left by taxi.
Additionally green marked stations can be used by bus as well.
Red stations are subway stations and subway lines with the longest distances.
You can only reach adjacent stations using the transportation you chose before.

Mr.X starts at a random and unknown station.

He moves according to the same rules on a random basis in terms of transportation and stations. You do a step, Mr.X does a step, you do another and so on.
After each of his steps you know the transportation Mr.X used.
After every third step you also know his location.
To make the hunt easier you know about every location of Mr.X after 15 steps.
So - different from the original board game you don't fight a strategy, you just fight a random moving Mr.X.

Your aim is to be on the same station as Mr.X after the same step.
Then you will catch Mr.X and question him about the hide of a secret box in Dronten.








Mr.X

You should have the plan of the playground with you - it's easier.

Good luck while hunting for Mr.X!
