Product Description

Love games like Clue but want to take your investigative skills to the next level? In Deception, players take on the roles of investigators attempting to solve a murder case – but there's a twist. The killer is one of the investigators! Each player's role and team are randomly assigned at the start of play and include the unique roles of Forensic Scientist, Witness, Investigator, Murderer, and Accomplice. While the Investigators attempt to deduce the truth, the murderer's team must deceive and mislead. This is a battle of wits!

The Forensic Scientist has the solution but can express the clues only using special scene tiles while the investigators (and the murderer) attempt to interpret the evidence. In order to succeed, the investigators must not only deduce the truth from the clues of the Forensic Scientist, they must also see through the misdirection being injected into the equation by the Murderer and Accomplice.

Find out who among you can cut through deception to find the truth and who is capable of getting away with murder!

    5 Stars
    Awesome game!
    Pros* Easy setup* Short play time* Plays up to 12Cons* Some of the tiles the forensic scientist use can be utterly useless* We found the means and clue cards should have been biggerThis game is an absolute blast! I have Mysterium and we found it somewhat interesting, and have pulled it out a few times, but this game just destroys it. Yes they are totally different, but kind of have the same 'Clue' feeling, trying to figure out who did it. If we have a choice to play only one, it will always be Deception!With handing out the role cards to everyone, and 4 means cards and 4 clue cards to all but the forensic scientist, not game will ever be the same! This is a total party game. The most I have played with so far is 7, and for the most part, nobody was sitting in their seat. They were all standing, or walking around the table to get a good look at each others cards, and it got decently loud with people accusing each other. This game is a must in my opinion!
