Get ready to dive into a world of intrigue and distrust with The Resistance! This social deduction game places you at the heart of a rebellion against an oppressive empire. Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to destroy enemy bases and liberate your people. But beware: Imperial spies have infiltrated your ranks, ready to sabotage any effort. You'll have to uncover these traitors before it's too late!

Designed for 5 to 10 players with quick 30-minute games, The Resistance is perfect for livening up any gathering without the dreaded player elimination – everyone stays in the action until the very end! While inspired by classics like Mafia/Werewolf, it shines with unique mechanics that amplify interaction and allow for more informed decisions.

At the start of the game, you'll be secretly assigned as either a Resistance Operative or an Imperial Spy. Over three to five rounds, the Resistance must work together to complete crucial missions, while the Spies try to subtly sabotage them. Each round kicks off with a healthy dose of discussion (and plenty of accusations!). The round's leader proposes a team for the mission, and everyone votes to approve or reject this formation. If the team is approved, the chosen players secretly decide whether to 'Support' or 'Sabotage' the mission. The outcome of these secret votes determines the mission's success or failure. The Resistance wins if they manage to complete three missions, but if three missions fail, the Empire (and the spies) emerge victorious. Prepare your best poker face and sharpen your persuasion skills, because the people's freedom depends on you!
