What is Звёздные войны: Тайное вторжение (Star Wars: Secret Invasion)

In Звёздные войны: Тайное вторжение (Star Wars: Secret Invasion) you will infiltrate the Death Star to help Princess Leia get out of prison. Players will be confronted by numerous stormtroopers and Darth Vader himself. Luke Skywalker, Han Solo and Obi-Wan Kenobi will come to the rescue.

Звёздные войны: Тайное вторжение, a Star Wars-themed version of Love Letter, is a quick game of luck, determination and deduction. Play character cards, watch out for opponents' actions...and may the Force be with you!

The game is played with only 17 cards. At the beginning of the game, one card is removed at random, then each player draws a card. The game is played in several rounds. Each round represents a stage in the escape plan. At the end of each round, one of the players will get closer to the plan's realization and receive a special token. As soon as someone's got enough tokens, that player will rescue Leia and take her to the Rebel Base.

On their turn, a player draws a card, then plays one of the two cards in hand. Each character card — Princess Leia, Obi-Wan Kenobi, Darth Vader, Luke Skywalker, Chewbacca, C-3PO, R2-D2, Han Solo, Stormtrooper and Boba Fett — has a special ability. In this version of Love Letter, Boba Fett functions the same as a Stormtrooper, with each having the Guard ability of naming a player's role and eliminating them from the round, but with Boba Fett if you miss on the first shot, you can try again. Miss a second time, though, and you're out of the round yourself!
