TUESDAY 22 NOVEMBER 1966
326th day - 39 days to come
Called Bill Bentzin. He promised to send me a copy of
BREAKTHRU and a spare ACQUIRE.
Ordered 20 prints of tyhe Clue sheets from Capitol Blueprint
for OPERATION SEARCH.
To Jules Cooper's house on Long Island, bringing him OPERATION SEARCH.
He told me of a mystery GAME they are working on.
Players move around a board and can in some degree affect
the commission of the crime. Time also enter
into it. A suspect could not commit a murder at 4 if
he was killed at 3. There is a point in the game
where players ente fill out a questionaire concerning
what they have observed and are marked on this, tho
this is not the end of the game.
Their idea is to publish three deduction games; a
highly intellectual type - theirs; an in-between type -
mine (if they take it); and a simple one. Ideal at
present is second only to Milton Bradley in sale of games,
but they are not in the adult board game market because,
as Jules says, they don't have any really good board games.
He is trying to rectify this and to convince top management
that they will sell.
