For the rules of Mr Jack, see GameHelpMrJack

Notice that on an even turn, you know which characters will be available (the ones which were not available in the odd turn before) and you get first pick.
- Therefore, if on an odd turn you manage to put Mr. Jack in range of an escape and in the dark, you win next turn.
Otherwise, the basic strategy is to keep as many suspects as possible in the light or in the dark, and Mr. Jack always in the larger group.

Try to split suspects as much as possible between light and dark.
- On odd turns, prefer to put suspects that are playable this turn in the dark, and other suspects in the light.
- That way Jack cannot escape on the next turn.
