Deception: Murder in Hong Kong
Solve the murder — the killer is at your table, smiling at you.
Who it's for
Large groups who want a fast, dramatic social deduction game with a murder mystery skin.

Vibe's take
Dramatic, chaotic, theatrically fun.
About this game
One player knows the murderer and murder weapon — but can only point at scene tiles to communicate, never speak. Everyone else debates, accuses, and tries to solve the case while the murderer hides in plain sight. Deception: Murder in HK scales brilliantly up to twelve players and generates chaotic, cinematic moments.
