See [[graveyard|the graveyard map]] and [[ball|the Ball map]]
==== Solution ====
  * Whenever Jack glances in a direction, he will then move in that direction
  * Whenever Jack is in a direct line - vertical, horizontal or diagonal he will shoot Simon
  * Move so Jack is never in a direct line, or a gravestone is providing cover
  * Jack moves randomly, but the graveyard is limited in size and the only escape route he can use is out the way Simon came in (only Simon can enter the Gardens)
