Parasit

Parasit is a super fun card game, focused on bluffing and deception, perfect for 3 to 6 players who enjoy a good dose of cunning at the table. The central idea is that you need to be the master of convincing lies or the detective who unmasks others' tall tales. Whoever gets caught lying, or makes a wrong accusation, literally ends up holding the bag – or rather, the cards – like a parasite clinging on. The goal is to be the first to get rid of all your cards. On your turn, you play one or more cards face down and announce a value. The trick is that no one knows if you're telling the truth or bluffing shamelessly! The next player has two options: either they add their own face-down cards, maintaining the announced value, or they decide to flip over one of the recently played cards to challenge your claim. If the challenger is right, the lying player collects the entire discard pile; if they're wrong, they take the pile instead. Whoever picks up the cards starts the next phase. Oh, and there's a special card that allows a player to intervene out of turn, flipping a card to challenge a play. The round ends when someone runs out of cards or when a player accumulates all four Parasite cards. At the end, each remaining card is worth one point, and each Parasite card is worth two. If someone has all four Parasite cards, only that person scores points for the round, and everyone else scores zero. After several rounds, whoever has the fewest points wins the game. It's pure excitement and guaranteed laughs!
