Nice game with a unique theme and dice-less mechanic.
It seems to me that elimination is a bit slow in the beginning, as you have no clue of guessing what the opponent's card is.
Hilariously great setting and story, nice twist on the theme. If I'd never played Avalon before I would have thought this a singularly brilliant mechanic. But I have, and other Werewolf variations, so I'm not unfamiliar with this kind of social deception game.
It's a great party game! Once, or maybe twice. At the third time you get to know your friends for the complete flat-faced liars they are, or the complete inability to bend the truth at all. On the fifth game you've exhausted some peoples' abilities to think that hard. And on the sixth game the host is either the best player of the game or is trying to convince the hard-core liars to move on to something else.
In any case, this is a good flavor variation on the SD genre. Nicely done.
I love this! I will play it and get back to you regarding feedback!
Haha. Love the angle. It was pretty fun to play, but we got a bit confused over what roles people had pretended to have and it's obviously a bit more of a guessing game to begin with. Nice one, all up though.
Thanks, glad you had fun. I probably should have suggested different numbers of starter cards for different numbers of players. Ah well, as long as you got a kick out of it!
After the Jam just update it :)
