About Bakerstreet

Two players race to try to solve a mysterious case by collecting 7 consecutively-lettered evidence cards. Every turn a player increases his influence by placing a card next to an evidence pile. After that he has to estimate the total of the values of both players' cards in hand. Instead of increasing influence a player may dispute the opponent's bid. If the bid was too high (higher than the card total) the player may choose one evidence pile which is evaluated.
