A mostly cooperative trick-taking game about secret agents on a mission, with a saboteur hidden in your ranks. You complete a mission with each trick while trying to spot the insider quietly wrecking your plans, deciding round by round who is acting suspiciously and who you can trust.
Who it's for
Groups who love both trick-taking and hidden-traitor games and want a card game with real bluffing and accusation.
Not for you if…
You dislike social deduction or being the suspicious one, and it needs a fuller table to sing. With fewer players the deduction thins out and the traitor is easier to pin.
Vibe's take
Cooperative card play laced with social-deduction paranoia, every odd play sharpening your suspicions.
