Can you believe that Meeple Mountain turns ten this year? Oh, and we just published our 3,000th post! Join Editor in Chief and Meeple Mountain founder for a walk down memory lane.
Six Perfected Game Mechanics (Volume 4)
Mafia Blitz is a fast-paced, big group, one-round social deduction game for 6 to 12 players, ages 14 and up, and plays in just 10–15 minutes. No random role dealing. Your secret role sets your win condition, and gives you just enough info to help or mislead. No player elimination, no long nights, and no downtime. Every game is a tense standoff packed with bluffs and misdirection.
Our team member Mark Iradian is publishing his first board game and we'd love for you to help make it a success!
