Description
In Sleepers, you're the leader of a resistance network in occupied France during World War II, trying to recruit and activate a network of operatives across the country. The game is simple to learn, with rules that can be explained quickly, making it easy to dive into a 30-minute game with a friend. You'll use tiles to recruit agents, who start as sleeper agents and can later be activated to perform tasks, all while trying to outmaneuver your opponent. As you build your network, you'll need to use strategy and bluffing to outwit your opponent, trying to create a line of active agents across the board or eliminate their network altogether. With multiple ways to win and lose, the game is full of tension and excitement, making each playthrough unique and engaging. Designed by Stephen Tavener, Sleepers is a thrilling abstract strategy game that's perfect for fans of deduction and espionage.
