What is Saboteur

Players take on the role of dwarves. As miners, they are in a mine, hunting for gold. Suddenly, a pick axe swings down and shatters the mine lamp. The saboteur has struck. But which of the players are saboteurs? Will you find the gold, or will the fiendish actions of the saboteurs lead them to it first? After three rounds, the player with the most gold is the winner.

With the help of Dwarf Cards, the players are assigned their role: either miner or saboteur. The roles are kept secret- they are only revealed at the end of the round.

The Start Card and the three Goal Cards are placed onto the table, each seven cards away from the start and one card between each Goal Card. The Goal Cards are placed face-down. The gold is on one of the Goal Cards, but nobody knows which.

Players have cards in hand. On a player's turn, he must do one of three things: place a Path Card into the mine, play an Action Card in front of a player, or pass.

[b]Primera partida[/b] (4/10) Varias partidas sin registrar. Juego de cartas de roles ocultos. Creo que es un juego que actualmente está superado. Simplón.

Saboteur es un juego de cartas en el que los jugadores deberán construir un túnel hasta la preciada pepita de oro (a unas 7 cartas de distancia). Pero entre los jugadores habrá saboteadores, que tratarán de impedir que eso ocurra.

De mis favoritos cuando empecé en el mundo de los juegos de mesa moderno. Me lo sigo pasando bien jugándolo a día de hoy, pero creo que depende mucho del grupo con el que juegues. Si es un grupo que le mole el puteo y comer la oreja te lo pasarás bien. No le puedo poner más nota porque a día de hoy hay juegos de mesa de roles ocultos mejores.

It's not a bad game, but the options for saboteurs are quite limited, and it's easy for them to be discovered if they try to play a card that helps them. Perhaps more use could be made of the 3 endgame cards, but everyone knows where the gold nugget is too early.

Entretenido para grupos grandes, pero me da la impresión de que es demasiado previsible.
