The Menace Among Us

Your ship is losing oxygen, and hidden imposters are sabotaging its systems. Work together to restore power and survive, while identifying the Menace among the crew. Players secretly play cards to repair the ship, attack crew members, and manipulate its dwindling resources. Each player has a hidden agenda, character abilities, and an individual goal, while votes can expose suspected traitors—but may waste valuable oxygen if the accusation is wrong.

    A good quick thinking (but backstabbing) hidden role game. Think BSG-lite with lots of roles and characters (each with own powers) but plays in 45 to 60 min.
