To Jules Cooper's house on Long Island, bringing him <u>OPERATION SEARCH</u>. | |||
He told me of a mystery <u>GAME</u> they are working on. <br> | |||
Players move around a board and can in some degree affect <br> | |||
the commission of the crime. Time also enter <br> | |||
into it. A suspect could not commit a murder at 4 if <br> | |||
he was killed at 3. There is a point in the game <br> | |||
where players <s>ente</s> fill out a questionaire concerning <br> | |||
what they have observed and are marked on this, tho <br> | |||
this is not the end of the game. <br> | |||
Their idea is to publish three deduction games; a <br> | |||
highly intellectual type - theirs; an in-between type - <br> | |||
mine (if they take it); and a simple one. Ideal at <br> | |||
present is second only to Milton Bradley in sale of games, <br> | |||
but they are not in the adult board game market because, <br> | |||
as Jules says, they don't have any really good board games. <br> | |||
He is trying to rectify this and to convince top management <br> | |||
that they will sell. <br> |
