Each of you has been accused of crimes you didn't commit, and the only way out is to work as a team to uncover the truth. The game is divided into 3 acts, forming a campaign, but here's a cool twist: each scenario can be played individually, without the obligation to follow the order. The fun lies in figuring out another player's solution. Each scenario is a 6x6 grid with colored boxes, each color representing a type of proof. At the start, everyone receives cards that form a colleague's solution. Each turn, you ask strategic questions, helping yourself and everyone else piece things together. The challenge? Discovering the solution before you run out of questions! If everyone guesses correctly at the end, victory is yours. Got it wrong? Well, the group loses. But don't worry, the game is super modular! Each scenario has 3 difficulty levels, from newcomers to deduction masters. As you progress, you'll unlock new modules and even unique powers for your characters. It's a game that demands communication and logical reasoning, perfect for those who enjoy solving mysteries in a group, with a touch of intrigue and charismatic characters. ## FAQ ### How many players can participate in Almost Innocent?
