## Description
Get ready for an amped-up Coup! This Deluxe version packs the Inquisitor and Factions expansions, with artwork inspired by the mobile app, making it feel super sleek. The power struggle here is fierce, and we play with 2 to 6 players, so the showdown is more focused. The goal? Be the last one standing with the most influence. To achieve this, you'll wield character cards, each with a wicked power: the Duke steals coins, the Assassin eliminates others, the Captain snatches your coins back, the Countess shields you from attacks, and the Ambassador swaps your cards. The catch is, you only have two cards in hand, and you can lie about who you are! But beware, if someone catches you bluffing, you lose a life. Lose both lives, and you're out. It's a game of bluffing, deduction, and pure audacity. You need to guess who has what, who's lying, and when to strike. Each round, you declare an action of a character (it could be yours or not), and others can challenge you. If you prove you told the truth, the challenger loses a life. If you lied, you lose. Simple as that, but the fun is guaranteed. Perfect for those who enjoy a quick game, packed with interaction and that thrilling tension of not knowing who to trust.
