About this deal
The series was generally well received by critics, who praised the programme for being "fresh, yet familiar", likening it to party games such as Mafia or wink murder. [23] [24] Rebecca Nicholson of The Guardian says the format "feels like a revival of the early, more innocent days of reality TV", calling it " The White Lotus meets Big Brother 1". [25] The Tab, believed that social media helped the success of the show: "The memes and everyone live- tweeting it has played a big part in its success. Nobody wants to miss out on a reality TV show that everyone is talking about." [23] Isobel Lewis of The Independent was more critical, however, saying it "definitely isn't a perfect reality show, or even the best in its genre right now, but it is pretty entertaining." [26] Viewership [ edit ] You’ll need at least 3 other treacherous terrors to play The Traitors as is it for 4 – 8 players. As our household is usually a 2-3 bods around the board affair, we drafted in our not-yet-game addicted but willing friends.

Quiet Night – play continues. Murder – the Traitor will secretly murder someone. Banishment – All players must discuss and vote out a player. When the Final Banishment card is drawn, or there are only 2 players left, play the final event, and then all remaining players reveal their roles. Lewis, Isobel (29 November 2022). "The Traitors might not be very Christmassy, but it sure is fun – review". The Independent . Retrieved 22 December 2022.One of the players will be infected and known as the “host”. The host’s job is to try and infect the other players and stop them from destroying the hive. Each player has infection cards (only the host’s are real). When you enter a room with any other player, you have to swap one of your cards. If you encounter the host and he gives you an infection card (and you don’t have a counter card), you become one of the infected. If you are unsure of someone’s loyalty, you can also just blast them in the face with your gun instead of swapping cards. I suppose that becomes a viable option one the paranoia fully sets in.

If you are a board gamer and a fan of the TV show Battlestar Galactica (BSG) you need to own this game. Seriously. Go buy it right now…I’ll wait…Done? Good. It is rare that a board game so perfectly captures the essence of the source material the way BSG does. BSG puts the players in the role of the crew members of Battlestar Galactica. They are attempting to keep galactic and the human fleet alive as the make continuous FTL jumps towards a new home world. Hard choices and easy to learn game play are hallmarks of this great game. Sacrifices will constantly have to be made and the perusing Cylons can be relentless in their quest to wipe out humanity. a b c d e f g h i j k l m Westbrook, Caroline (23 December 2022).

It’s the dirty cop’s job to make life miserable for the other players.
