About the game

What you do in a play session

Grab your badge, agent! If you live for the adrenaline of secret missions where one mistake costs millions, Kitala is your next mission. The stakes are high: one of our top spies has been compromised, and blackmailers are closing in. Your goal is simple but the execution is pure controlled chaos: one player acts as the Spy (represented by a secret card) while the rest of the group plays as Agents. The team must identify the spy before time runs out, but it's not as easy as it sounds. You'll be firing off yes/no questions as fast as possible, trying to pinpoint the character through various card stacks. But watch out—there are catches: you can only hold one stack at a time, and communication is strictly limited by specific rules. To make things even more intense, everything happens in real-time, turning your table into a high-pressure command center. If you fail to identify the maximum number of characters within the time limit, the agency is toast. It's a game of pure mental agility, where teamwork and quick thinking are the only things standing between success and total disaster. It's fast, it's frantic, and it's perfect for fans of classic spy thrillers with a heavy dose of urgency!
