Description

In Shinobi: El Juego del Asesino, a group of deadly Shinobi infiltrate a village with a mission to murder all its villagers. The game is played in rounds of night and day, with the Shinobi attacking from the shadows under the cover of darkness and the village council gathering to lynch a suspect during the day. This dynamic creates a thrilling experience, especially with 8 to 26 players, making it a great party game. With easy-to-learn rules and a playtime of just 20 minutes, Shinobi is perfect for a fun and quick game night. The game's mechanics, including player elimination, team-based gameplay, and variable player powers, add to the excitement, while the voting element introduces a social deduction aspect, similar to Mafia/Werewolf, but with new characters and abilities. Will the villagers survive or will the Shinobi succeed in their mission? The team that survives wins, making every round a suspenseful and entertaining experience.
