Description

Imagine being part of a group of friends working together to save a life, but with a twist - one of you might be a traitor. Hourglass of Life is a cooperative game that brings this thrilling experience to your tabletop. Designed by Shikirito and first published in 2016, this game is perfect for 3 to 5 players looking for a quick and exciting challenge that can be played in just 10 to 20 minutes. The game rules are incredibly simple, making it easy to jump into the action right away. As a roll-and-move game, you'll spin and roll your way through a dynamic board created from cards, some of which start face down, adding an element of surprise to each move. When you land on a card, you get to pick it up and then can choose a card from your hand to place in its spot, sometimes triggering special actions. But time is against you - with each round, the days tick down, and you have to work together to make it to the end of the track before time runs out. However, not everyone's intentions are pure. There's a traitor among you, and their goal is the opposite of yours - they want to either reach the end first or watch as time runs out, sealing the fate of the girl in the hospital. This traitor element adds a layer of suspense and mistrust, making the game even more engaging and challenging. Will you work together to save a life, or will the traitor succeed in their mission? Find out in Hourglass of Life, a game that packs a lot of excitement and unpredictability into a short, accessible package.
