The Resistance is a very intense social deduction game for 5–10 players.
While it shares similiarities with games like Werewolf, Mafia and even
Battlestar Galactica it has many very unique features such as a quick 30 minute
play time, no moderator required and no player elimination.
Set in the near future, The Resistance pits a small group of resistance
fighters against a powerful and corrupt government. The resistance has launched
a series of bold and daring missions to bring the governement to its knees.
Unfortunately spies have infiltrated the resistance ranks, ready to sabotage the
carefully crafted plans. Even a single spy can take down a resistance mission
team, choose your teams carefully or forever lose your chance for freedom.
Included in this release is a full expansion – “The Plot Thickens” is
15 additional action cards that increase the pressure and pacing of the game,
and requires the spies to be even more deceitful if they are to achieve
victory.
The Resistance artfully balances pure deduction elements with the social
elements into a game that creates the adrenaline filled moments of high stakes
poker but in a full interactive and social event. Its not for the faint of
heart, or slow of mind – but if you are quick on your feet you'll be proud of
your hard fought victories.
Ages 13+
5–10 players.
