My announced games
Gunpowder, Treason and Plot (Blackletter Games)
Blow up Parliament in real-time – or try to prevent a disaster!
Real-time, turn-based, social deduction
The year is 1605, and a plot is afoot. Some of you are Instigators out to blow up Parliament with lots of gunpowder. Some of you are Agents of the Crown, hoping to protect Parliament by infiltrating and disrupting their plans.
When the hourglass starts, you will have 10 minutes of real-time play to prime the bombs (or mess them up so they won’t go off). Use the tools to fill the specific plans for each bomb, or discard a couple of tools to take a special Investigation action. If you figure out which side someone’s on, you can Accuse them to eliminate them. Do it fast, though – once the hourglass starts, it doesn’t stop for anything!
