Secret Hitler (EN) (SBDK7507)

From the team behind Cards Against Humanity comes perhaps the world's best-known 'social deduction game', Secret Hitler.

Secret Hitler is a dramatic game of political intrigue and betrayal set in 1930s Germany. If you like games like Werewolf or Fake Artist, this is the ultimate game for you!

Each player is randomly and secretly assigned to be a liberal or a fascist... and one player is 'Secret Hitler'. The fascists coordinate to sow distrust and install their cold-blooded leader; the liberals must find and stop the 'secret Hitler' before it is too late. The liberal team always has a majority. At the beginning of the game, the players close their eyes and the fascists reveal themselves to each other. The player who is 'Secret Hitler' keeps his eyes closed but puts his thumb up so the fascists can see who he is. So the fascists know who Hitler is, but Hitler doesn't know who his fellow fascists are, and the liberals don't know anything at all.

Each round, players appoint a president and a chancellor who work together to pass a law that is either fascist or liberal. If the government passes a fascist law, players must try to figure out if they were betrayed or just unlucky. The goal for the liberal team is to adopt five liberal policies or assassinate Secret Hitler. The goal for the fascist team is to enact six fascist policies or appoint Secret Hitler as chancellor after three fascist policies have been enacted.
