oops, I forgot one.

CONSULTING DETECTIVE

Fabulous for anyone who likes mysteries, Holmes, games, or puzzles.  It costs
$20 for ten expendable cases (more due soon) but it's really worth it.  You
get a map and directory of London, a lecture from Holmes concerning resouce
people, and a case book.  You read text that makes you a Baker Street irr.
and tells you about the case.  From there you pick an address from your directory
and clues, look up the address in the clue book, read more text and continue
until you think you know what's going on.  Then, you take a quiz and score
yourself.  This can be played in competition or alone but we like to use it as
a party; we all go to the same clues and discuss the case together but answer
the quiz separately.  OH! I forgot about the newspapers.  You also get a stack of old London Times.

IN SHORT, surprisingly worth the $20.
