Walkthrough for Jacks or better to murder, Aces to win

My emphasis was a story with a "gathered environment."  The 
player quickly learns who (s)he (the character's sex is never
mentioned) is and through recollections and observations gradually 
gathers the world in which (s)he has ruled for a long time.  With 
that in mind, a two hour competition limit (befitting a "staccato"
pace) and a deliberate avoidance of puzzles that didn't fit, there 
are no particularly difficult problems to solve.  --JDB
