Who it's for

Larger groups who love loud accusations, hidden roles and a Wild West excuse to shout Bang! at each other.

Not for you if…

You dislike being shot at, literally and socially, since accusing the wrong person is half the entertainment.

About this game

BANG! drops you into a Wild West standoff where you know your own loyalty and nothing else. The Sheriff sits in plain sight, but Deputies, Outlaws and a lone Renegade are all hidden among the rest of you, and figuring out who is aiming at whom is half the game. Cards fly fast: Bang! to shoot, Missed! to dodge, Beer to patch yourself up, plus wild character powers that twist the rules further. Shoot the wrong person and you have just handed the enemy a free turn. Loud, fast, and built for exactly the kind of table talk that gets people yelling.
