Preface
This is a great game. I especially love that it can be played by up to 12 people. I do not have very many games in my collection that can fit such a large group. Everyone i have introduced this game to has enjoyed it. We rarely play only one time. Everyone wants to take a turn as the clue giver. This game is deceptively difficult and yet not too complicated that my party-game hardliner friends won't take a try (and love it! ). The Best Deception: Murder in Hong Kong as-of ( Jan 2021 ) | Grey Fox Games-Toys And Games Review Bonus Deception: Murder in Hong Kong For 4-12 players. 15-20 minute playing time. Ages 12 and up .
Deception: Murder in Hong Kong Review (GFG96761)
A fun deduction game, and it is a deduction game, you can use information to try to figure out what is going one, meanwhile the killer is trying to bend the situation to make it look like others are guilty. Have played this game several times and it seems like the detectives are slightly more likely to win, but its pretty close. Also the games go quickly so you will end playing several times. -A.

Deception: Murder in Hong Kong (Switch to Mobile/Desktop Version)
Really quickly became the game my group plays the most! it's a great game that brings good deduction mechanics and most importantly a big laughs&funs! . I played about 10 games so far (6ppl & 4ppl) and here are my impressions:. - it's really fast (15-30 depending on no. Of players) and non gamers can easily pick up and also be really good at this game. - i love the components and its quality. Though i still used card sleeves to protect the role cards. If murderer card has some distinct damage or fold it will kill the game. - it's easy to swap away your forensic scientist role without affecting the game (if you don't like the role). - murderer has much less pressure compared to other games like resistance. It's really hard to tell who the murderer is from their behaviours as everyone's cards would match some of clues given. Also guessing the murderer won't finish the game as you have to guess the 2 cards completely correctly. So it's much more proper deduction than sniffing out the bad guy(s) which i really like about the game. - i would say it's slightly easier for murderer to win. It's mainly because some of the clue tiles cannot help to guess some cards at all (e. G. Weapon is a poison and clue tile is weather). And you only get to change 2 clue tiles only. - definitely would be more fun with large number of players (i think 6-8 would be perfect). I really really really hope to see an expansion for this game as there are good room for improvements such as adding more cards, roles, events, mechanics. I am not saying this game is not great yet but i can see that it can become even greater game with more stuff. Please make an expansion !

Deception: Murder In Hong Kong (Grey Fox Games)"This game feels like clue without all the moving around on the board. Its a fantastic logic game where you talk with the other players to try to deduce the murder scenario that has taken place based on clues provided by the forensic scientist while the murderer tries to mislead the group. . Great replay value, and everyone i've played with has enjoyed it. I recommend at least 4 people to fully enjoy the game. . Pros:. -fun discussions. -fun for bigger groups. -easy to introduce. .

Secret Hitler
Secret hitler is a dramatic game of political intrigue and betrayal set in 1930's germany. Players are secretly divided into two teams - liberals and fascists. Known only to each other, the fascists coordinate to sow distrust and install their cold-blooded leader. The liberals must find and stop the secret hitler before it's too late. Secret hitler introduces new mechanics to the hidden-identity game genre. The first is the element of randomness. When laws are passed, the president draws three policies, passes two to the chancellor, and the chancellor enacts one. Only the enacted policy is revealed, so players have to rely on the president and chancellor's word to know what got discarded. The deck has a known initial composition (11 fascist policies, 6 liberal policies), and players can roughly track deck contents based on what the president and chancellor report, though someone might have lied about what was discarded. That means players can form reasonable expectations and plan around probability, but they can also manipulate future probabilities and expectations in a way that benefits their team. The second new mechanic is the "hitler" identity: if hitler is elected as chancellor after the third fascist policy has already been enacted, the game ends immediately and the fascists win. This means hitler will spend most of the game playing as a liberal to gain players' trust. Once the third fascist policy is enacted, anyone who has helped the group becomes immediately suspect; if the liberals make a wrong move at this point, they lose immediately. This creates incredible moments of tension and relief in the game.

Spyfall Card Game
Walk a mile in the shoes of a spy! or was it a kilometer in clogs? spyfall is an easy-to-learn card game of bluffing, probing questions, clever answers, and suspicion. At the start of each round, players receive a secret card letting them know where they are - a casino, space station, pirate ship, circus, (30 unique locations! ) - except that one player receives the spy card instead of the location. The spy doesn't know where he is, but wins the round if he can figure it out before he blows his cover! players then start asking each other questions during the intense 8-minute rounds. Non-spy players want to ask questions and give answers that prove to the other players that they know where they are. But watch out! if your questions and answers are too specific, the spy will easily guess the location and win, so you need to practice a bit of subtlety. But if your questions and answers are too generic, you might be accused of being the spy. The spy will also sometimes be asked questions (just like any other player would) and have to come up with questions of his own, without knowing anything about where he is! if you listened carefully to the other players, you'll be able to come up with a plausible question or answer. Hopefully.

Sheriff of Nottingham
I say, what a fun romp this was. This game can best be described as smuggling goods: the game. This, like the resistance, is a game that runs on personality. Play with a lifeless crowd, this game falls flat. Play with an animated group who likes to roleplay and isn't afraid to talk smack, and you've got yourself a winner. . Components are nice. Solid coins, detailed, colourful artwork, and a nice sturdy box. The app addition from the website adds to the atmosphere. However, fair warning: those snaps are way too tight, and buttons have been reported to rip out on the very first playthrough with many people. My friends and i went into the game knowing this, and fortunately, all of them survived. My advice is to find a tailor who could whip you up some alternative bags out of felt and some buttons/velcro that won't tear right out. Be careful. . Other than that, great game. You will have a blast.
In sheriff of nottingham, players will take turns stepping into the shoes of the sheriff himself, while others act as merchants attempting to bring their goods into the city for profit! beware though, while many may act as honest merchants, there is always the possibility of contraband being smuggled into the city!

This game was a hit at family game night! . . A truly rich experience - much richer than you'd think from reading the game's description. I had this on my to-buy list for over a year and always passed, thinking it looked, well, a bit boring. "i'm paying how much for this? to do what? put cards in a bag? " well gosh, was i wrong! . . This game is a hoot! a 100% grand-slam! i love it! here's some reasons why:. + repeated play with the same group isn't dull: players refine and switch up their strategy, leading to tense, comical game moments as someone is unexpectedly caught by a usually-lax sheriff who has decided to play hard ball, or as someone sneaks in tons of contraband who normally is honest. This sort of relationship within the game keeps things fresh and exciting, and players are eager to replay to implement new schemes. + the game is precisely as long as it needs to be, and never drags on: it ends at that happy point of "aww, i could've kept going! ", which many games don't know how to do anymore. This is one of those games that your group will say "let's play it again! " before the points are even tallied. + rich point-scoring system: this was a blast. Who will be the cheese queen? who had royal goods tucked away to blow out the scores? this keeps the game quite exciting! . + gorgeous art: i wasn't sold at first, personally, but after seeing the game in-person, i must admit, it's quite beautifully done and it really suits the mood. . If you're on the fence, if you're saying, "hey, why would i pay this much for a game about lying about cards in a little bag? what's the big deal? " let me tell you: you need this game, you will love this game, and you will slap yourself for not getting it sooner! -Notice from Q. Cindy, Massachusetts

Great party game. It is really easy to learn and can be fun for a large range of ages. The concept of the game is very unique and is a good change for usual board games. It really lives up to its description:. . The sheriff of nottingham is a fun and engaging game for all where each player will have the chance to step into the shoes of the sheriff himself! other players, acting as merchants will attempt to bring their goods into the city for profit. Beware though, while many may act as honest merchants, there is always the possibility of contraband being smuggled into the city! . . I highly recommend this game, my family has a great time everytime we play!

- N. PearceThis game is a fantastic way to start or end a game night. Best with 4-5 people. Best if the people playing are a fun group, and are willing to not take the game too seriously. Games take 40-60 minutes, depending on the number of players. . There is no perfect strategy. You can be honest all the time and collect points with your legit goods, or try to amp up your score be sneaking in higher-value contraband. If you're caught, it hurts your wallet. If you get away with it, everyone knows, and that plays into how people deal with you in the future. . There are many nuances. You can bribe the sheriff into letting you pass with your cargo without an inspection, to get some contraband past him. You can attempt to bribe the sheriff, hoping he will inspect your legit cargo, and pay you for his mistrust. Everyone takes turns being the sheriff, and making tough decisions. Can you read the other players real intentions? they might lie to get you to do what they want. . You can play an honest merchant the whole game, and then switch to dishonest for big points when the sheriff doesn't expect it. But maybe he's thinking the same thing about your tactics. What will he do? will he inspect your cargo, or let you pass without an inspection? would a "donation" to his re-election campaign streamline the process, or raise suspicion and cause an inspection? make your move, and live with the consequences. It's a riot. . With 4 types of goods available, everyone is trying to be the 1 or 2 merchant in some of them, to earn bonus points. It pays to stock up on one or two of them, and ignore the rest.
Our gaming group loves the social-deduction trend that has been sweeping the board game world recently (coup, resistance, werewolf etc). This is an interesting take on the genre which emphasizes players discussing with each other the specifics of what they are trying to bring to the market (or smuggle in! ) rather than the "hidden role" style. Putting one player in each round "in charge" is a great way to shake things up as each player will handle "their" round differently. You will find that your group builds meta layers of strategy the more you play (david never lies, but wait - he did this time! ). . If you like social deduction games, this will be hours of fun.

Blood Rage
In blood rage, each player controls their own viking clanÍs warriors, leader, and ship. Ragnar k has come, and itÍs the end of the world! itÍs the vikingsÍ last chance to go down in a blaze of glory and secure their place in valhalla at odinÍs side! for a viking there are many pathways to glory. You can invade and pillage the land for its rewards, crush your opponents in epic battles, fulfill quests, increase your clan's stats, or even die gloriously either in battle or from ragnar k, the ultimate inescapable doom. Most player strategies are guided by the cards drafted at the beginning of each of the three game rounds (or ages). These ñgodsÍ giftsî grant you numerous boons for your clan including: increased viking strength and devious battle strategies, upgrades to your clan, or even the aid of legendary creatures from norse mythology. They may also include various quests, from dominating specific provinces, to having lots of your vikings sent to valhalla. Most of these cards are aligned with one of the norse gods, hinting at the kind of strategy they support. For example, thor gives more glory for victory in battle, heimdall grants you foresight and surprises, tyr strengthens you in battle, while the trickster loki actually rewards you for losing battles, or punishes the winner. Players must choose their strategies carefully during the draft phase, but also be ready to adapt and react to their opponentsÍ strategies as the action phase unfolds. Battles are decided not only by the strength of the figures involved, but also by cards played in secret. By observing your opponentÍs actions and allegiances to specific gods, you may predict what card they are likely to play, and plan accordingly. Winning battles is not always the best course of action, as the right card can get you even more rewards by being crushed. The only losing strategy in blood rage is to shy away from battle and a glorious death!
