In Alibis, the fun revolves around a lineup of extremely suspicious supervillains. The big challenge is that you and your friends must work together as a team to identify the true culprit of the story. But hold on, it's not that simple! The game begins with each player secretly receiving information about two suspects who are actually innocent. The goal is for the group, cooperatively, to associate these two characters with a single clue consisting of just one word. If everyone can make that mental connection and land on the same word, congratulations: you've found the culprit! However, the path to victory is full of mental traps. The real danger here is communication error: your single-word clue might be so ambiguous that it points to another player's villain instead of focusing on the actual culprit. It's a game of pure word association, where silence or a poorly chosen word can ruin the entire group's investigation. It's fast, straight to the point, and perfect for those who love a mental challenge without needing a 50-page manual. If you enjoy deduction games that work great anywhere, this is your next favorite! ## FAQ ### How long does a game take?
