About the game
What you do in a play session
Imagine the chaos of a packed subway car during rush hour, flickering lights, and a crowd trying to avoid getting pickpocketed. In Metrópoli, the vibe is pure social tension mixed with the kind of comedy of errors only a chaotic commute can provide. The game assigns players secret roles: on one side, professional pickpockets trying to swipe items without being caught; on the other, passengers desperately trying to keep their belongings safe. The gameplay alternates between moments of darkness—where the thieves strike—and phases of heated debate when the lights come back on, where everyone points fingers, accuses, and tries to convince the table of their innocence. Each character, like the Musician or the classic office worker, brings unique abilities that can turn the game upside down. The best part is how creative the thieves can be, pretending to be victims or even acting helpful to deflect suspicion. The passengers win by identifying and eliminating all the pickpockets before their scheme is completed. The thieves win by hitting their theft quota or surviving until the final blackout. It is a fast-paced, loud, and perfect game for large groups who enjoy deduction with a touch of dark humor and plenty of interaction. Forget long-term complex strategies; here, what matters is your gift of gab and your ability to read a bluff in the middle of the urban chaos.
