What is The Resistance
The Empire must fall. Our mission must succeed. By destroying their key bases, we will shatter Imperial strength and liberate our people. Yet spies have infiltrated our ranks, ready for sabotage. We must unmask them. In five nights we reshape destiny or die trying. We are the Resistance!
The Resistance is a party game of social deduction. It is designed for five to ten players, lasts about 30 minutes, and has no player elimination. The Resistance is inspired by Mafia/Werewolf, yet it is unique in its core mechanics, which increase the resources for informed decisions, intensify player interaction, and eliminate player elimination.
Players are either Resistance Operatives or Imperial Spies. For three to five rounds, they must depend on each other to carry out missions against the Empire. At the same time, they must try to deduce the other players’ identities and gain their trust. Each round begins with discussion. When ready, the Leader entrusts sets of Plans to a certain number of players (possibly including himself/herself). Everyone votes on whether or not to approve the assignment. Once an assignment passes, the chosen players secretly decide to Support or Sabotage the mission. Based on the results, the mission succeeds (Resistance win) or fails (Empire win). When a team wins three missions, they have won the game.

Roles ocultos facil de explicar y rápido de jugar. Apropiado para una noche de dnd
Hay que hacer caras de póker para poder ser más indescifrable
Filler para grupos. Juego de deducción y faroleo. Hay dos bandos: los espias de la resistencia y los agentes del gobierno. En cada turno, un jugador propone un equipo para una misión (abstracta, no se realiza nada en la misión) y el resto de los jugadores vota para aprobar o no ese equipo. Cuando un equipo es aprobado, los jugadores del equipo juegan una carta que determinará si la misión tiene éxito. Uno tiene que deducir los votos de cada uno para averiguar quien es el espía y evitar que participe en misiones. Gana la resistencia si consigue que fallen tres misiones o el gobierno si consigue
I love this kind of games. But this one seems very difficult for the resistance player to win. Played a 7 player game. 3 Spies 4 Resistance
Отличный киллер мафии, который лучше её во всём. Меня не привлекает сайфай сеттинг, но на такой случай есть Авалон.
I don't get this game. I do not find it enjoyable. In large groups, people can be left out of it.

Excellente party game! Good for breaking the ice between new groups in few minutes.
