i had a popular spanish adaptation of this game as a kid called alerta roja, never figured how to play it , instead of london you were in the sewers searching for a radiactive barrell (it was bizarre that you still used the cars in the sewers) but it had 2 things that make it stand out , first the barrel piece was beautiful, it was a transparent barrell with a skull piece sculpted inside, then the cover it looks great a blue and red ilustration of the barrell over the city skyline, it look like a horror movie vhs 80s cover( actually the same company made adaptation of classic board games with a horror theme i also had clue , called misterio and with dracula, frankenstein and clssic monsters set in a horror castle.
I was just looking at this game this week! fun game! A newer game Last Friday takes a lot of the mechanics of this game from it. except instead of running away from, you're secretly approaching and killing camp councilors. great idea for a game but terrible execution because the villain is so handicapped and the campers extra abilities make it borderline impossible to get caught. good review Norm!
My favorite board game when i was a kid
This is a really fun game. A friend of mine has it and four of us would get together and play it on weekend nights. Great review and explanation
I would like to pull this game out again, I've never been able to find Mr X

We love this game!
On my Top Ten List and have been there for many years. But It's not for the average players, alas.
