Description
In the cooperative game Witness, you and three friends team up to solve mysteries and crimes, but with a twist - you're limited in how you can share information with each other. Set in the world of Blake and Mortimer, a classic Belgian comic series, the game is all about communication and deduction. Each player represents a character with their own unique information, and you'll need to work together to piece together the clues. With 64 cases to crack, each one starts with a scene or image that sets the stage, and then you'll share information with each other in a series of whispered conversations. After a few rounds of discussion, you'll answer questions about the case and score points for correct answers. It's a simple yet engaging game that's easy to learn and plays quickly, making it a great option for a fun 15-minute game night with friends.
