## Description
Get ready for chaos in Backstabbers, a battle royale card game where trust is a luxury you can't afford! In a new world called Solara, humanity has destroyed its home and now seeks to survive in a hostile and competitive environment. Each player takes on the role of one of over 40 unique characters, using their abilities to eliminate rivals and become the last one standing. The goal is to accumulate gold coins; collecting five of them grants you the status of Supreme, the richest and most powerful in Solara. But beware, as betrayal can come from anywhere, and the 'Take That' dynamic is the main course here. Even when you're eliminated, you might still have a role in the game, making everything even more unpredictable. It's a fast-paced game, ideal for 3 to 8 players, with matches lasting around 45 minutes on average. The unpredictability and direct interaction make each game a new adventure, where the only certainty is uncertainty. Are you ready to betray or be betrayed? Remember: trust no one, not even yourself!
