The K9 Secret Police are sniffing out any hint of dissent, while the Wolf Resistance has stolen the station schematics – only to find a map with stations but no tunnels. Players split into two factions: one becomes the Senior Bloodhound, commanding K9SP squads, and the rest play the Wolf Resistance, with a Liaison guiding the Wolves. The Wolves must deliver compromising material and escape the city, while the Senior Bloodhound tries to block routes, locate the infiltrators, and stop the getaway. Deduction and hidden movement keep tension high; each side has limited information and must infer the opponent’s position as pieces move point‑to‑point on the board. The game lasts 30–60 minutes, supports 3–6 players, and sports a comic‑book style art that gives the urban conspiracy a playful vibe. It’s an asymmetrical showdown: one leader versus a team, with heavy internal cooperation and external bluffing. Perfect for fans of quick, suspenseful, humor‑filled games where team strategy and reading the opponent are key. ## FAQ ### How many players can join? 3 to 6 players, with one as the Senior Bloodhound and the rest as the Wolf Resistance. ### How long does a game take?
