Grab your magnifying glass and your deerstalker, because crime doesn't wait! In 'The Queen's Park Affair', you and your investigative partners dive into five intense days of interconnected mysteries in the streets of London. What happened to that missing reporter from the sporting gazette? Why was a bomb thrown during a cricket match? And the discovery of a decapitated corpse... well, that's just the tip of the iceberg. Here, you don't rely on luck, dice, or cards; what matters is your ability to connect dots, analyze details, and use pure logic to unravel the plot.

The game is essentially an exercise in deductive reasoning. You read the reports, consult the city directory, and decide where to go, trying to filter out the noise from the crucial clues. It's the perfect experience for those who love feeling like a real detective, discussing theories with friends or trying to solve everything alone in a solitary intellectual challenge.

A fundamental point of attention: the original 1984 version functions as an expansion. This means you will need the London map and the Directory from the base game ('The Thames Murders & Other Cases') to be able to play. Without them, you'll be without the city guide and won't know where to go. However, some later editions were released as stand-alone supplements, containing everything needed. Check which version you have in hand so you don't get stuck on the first clue. Either way, prepare yourself for a challenge where the only available tool is your mind.
