Description

Phantom Ink is a fast-paced party game where two teams, the Sun and the Moon, compete to figure out a secret object. With simple rules that can be explained quickly, 4 to 8 players can dive into the game, which typically lasts 10 to 15 minutes. Each team has a Spirit and up to three Mediums, who work together to guess the secret object by asking targeted questions and interpreting the Spirit's cryptic answers. As the game unfolds, Mediums pass question cards to their Spirit, who responds with one-letter-at-a-time clues, and teams must deduce the answer before the other team does. With its unique blend of communication limits, deduction, and teamwork, Phantom Ink is a thrilling word game that's perfect for groups of friends and family. Designed by Mary Flanagan and Max Seidman, this 2022 release has already earned recognition with seals of approval from the Game Makers Guild and The Dice Tower.
