Description Jack the Ripper

This game was created just before the centenary of England's most famous serial killer, who gruesomely murdered at least five women in 1888. After accidentally killing someone, you become a suspect. You must prove you are innocent, without the police dragging you down as they search for a scapegoat.

Jack the Ripper is an interactive fiction with occasional graphics, based on the real events of the Ripper. The parser accepts full sentences, and instructions can be qualified with adverbs such as 'slowly' and 'quietly'. The game is played in real time, and time elapses even when the player makes no moves. The game is divided into three parts, which include digitized graphics (by the author's sisters) depicting the Ripper's victims.

The game was created with Gilsoft's professional adventure writing system.
