Description

Insider is a fast-paced party game that challenges 4 to 8 players to work together to uncover a hidden word, all while figuring out who among them is secretly manipulating the conversation. With simple rules that can be explained quickly, players are randomly assigned roles, including a master, an insider, and commons. The master thinks of a word, the insider knows the word but keeps it hidden, and the commons try to guess the word by asking yes or no questions. As the commons try to deduce the word, the insider attempts to subtly guide them towards the correct answer without revealing their own identity. If the word is guessed correctly, the game shifts to a discussion phase where players try to figure out who the insider is. With a short playtime of just 15 minutes, Insider is a thrilling game of deduction, bluffing, and teamwork that will keep you on the edge of your seat.
