Description

In the world of Ambition, a fast-paced card game of deduction and misdirection, players must navigate a complex web of power and deception to emerge victorious. With 2 to 5 players taking part, each game is a thrilling experience that lasts between 10 to 30 minutes, making it the perfect addition to any game night. The rules are easy to learn, but mastering the game will take skill and strategy, as players must use hand management, memory, and simultaneous action selection to outmaneuver their opponents. As players take turns passing cards, playing face-down, and blocking their opponents' moves, the tension builds and alliances are formed and broken. With 16 unique character cards to choose from, each with its own special powers, players must use their skills of deduction and bluffing to gain the upper hand. The goal is simple: be the first player to acquire 10 coins, but the journey is full of twists and turns. Set in a medieval fantasy world, Ambition is a game of political intrigue and spies, where players must use their wits to outmaneuver their opponents and emerge victorious. Designed by Rob Acton and published in 2017, Ambition is a base game that promises hours of fun and excitement for players of all ages.
