In 4 Penny Coffins, one player is the Ripper, a demon-possessed murderer, and the other players are citizens investigating the case.\u003c/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe game runs through the Ripper\u0026#39;s murder, an investigation phase, and a judgment phase.

That shifts the deduction onto witness credibility, since the table cannot trust what it finds.
