The latest edition of Lansay The Mysteries of Beijing brings a wonderfully tactile update to a classic deduction board game, earning its spot in the Great Finds series. Slotted neatly onto a coffee table here in France, the freshly printed board feels reassuringly robust underhand, while sliding the red filter over the suspect cards retains an analogue charm. Sorting the myriad tiny cardboard tiles does require some initial patience before play begins.
