It looks like you missed the important rule about Jack’s special movements(on page 12): Jack cannot use a Special Movement tile to move into the next Discovery Location's numbered circle. Otherwise good explanation, thank you.
By the way, the special movement abilities DON'T all cost Jack 2 movement -- only the Coach does (because he literally moves twice). The rules don't explain any of that (at all), but the diagrams show it clearly. Anyway, thanks for making the video (forever ago). It's really good besides that one detail, and clarifies a couple things I'd missed before -- like, I actually didn't know that a coach cost two turns before, I checked the rulebook after seeing your video, and after staring at if for 5 minutes, realized it was in the diagram (and ONLY in the diagram. Nowhere is it explained. Like, wtf?), but it's not depicted that way in the boat/alley diagrams. Part of me wonders if it was just a mistake on the illustrator's part...
It might be an illustrator mistake, because it would conflict with the optional "murderers at large" rule that lets Jack keep which special movement he used a secret. If it advanced two turns instead of one, it would reveal to everyone that he used a coach.
Ben, EXCELLENT explanations, you've made it so easy to follow! Any thoughts about "translating" Photosynthesis or Nuns on the Run? Those two have us scratching our heads mid-way through and we wind up abandoning them, while others say they are SO easy to play (?)
Thank you for your video :-) There is only one thing which could mislead the watchers. You didn’t express it, but chronology of your presentation could lead to the conclusion, that investigators are put first on the board, and then Jack can work out where to put the parts of the body. And that’s not truth. Anyway very fine presentation.

Hey I just came across your videos. Excellent tutorials. Very enjoyable and clear. Great work and I look forward to more of them! 👍
Thanks Ben- excellent.
You're Welcome!

Thank you so much! I really behind on the my backlog of game tutorials. If it happens it wouldn't be for while. But I'll keep them in mind.
Thanks for the vid
Is this fun to play as a 2 player or too difficult for the inspector?
Even if the coach card is flip, doesn’t Jack need to move his pawn twice? Doesn’t it tell the cops about which card it is?
And what are black dots?
Thank you for your video :-)

Good observation! Thank you for the feedback!
