The Resistance is a very intense social deduction game for 5-10 players.While it shares similiarities with games like Werewolf, Mafia and even Battlestar Galactica it has many very unique features such as a quick 30 minute play time, no moderator required and no player elimination. Set in the near future, The Resistance pits a small group of resistance fighters against a powerful and corrupt government.The resistance has launched a series of bold and daring missions to bring the governement to its knees.Unfortunately spies have infiltrated the resistance ranks, ready to sabotage the carefully crafted plans.Even a single spy can take down a resistance mission team, choose your teams carefully or forever lose your chance for freedom. Included in this release is a full expansion - "The Plot Thickens" is 15 additional action cards that increase the pressure and pacing of the game, and requires the spies to be even more deceitful if they are to achieve victory. The Resistance artfully balances pure deduction elements with the social elements into a game that creates the adreniline filled moments of high stakes poker but in a full interactive and social event.Its not for the faint of heart, or slow of mind - but if you are quick on your feet you'll be proud of your hard fought victories.

If you've ever played and enjoyed a social game called Mafia, you absolutely MUST purchase this game. It takes all the things that are great about Mafia--player interaction, bluffing, lying, back-stabbing, social-deducing, and infultrating--and makes them better. In The Resistance, instead of killing players in the night, players all vote on arbitrary missions. But only a selected few players vote each round. If there's a spy among them, one "FAILED" vote from him/her and the mission fails. That's it. If three missions fail, spies win. If three missions pass, resistance wins.
The brilliant mechanic in The Resistance is the voting. Players are active and alive in the game until the bitter end--no player elimination is a good thing.
If you want an incredibly tense social gaming experience, I encourage you pick up The Resistance. And I'm not just a spy trying to get you to buy a bad product here. Seriously, I'm not...trust me.
