Description

Boston Massacre is a 5-10 player game of deception, hidden identity and battle of wits. With cunning play, weapon mastery and influence, you will seek to win the Revolution either as a Patriot or Redcoat. Benedict Arnold, a spy for the Redcoats, may steal a victory from the Patriots if he can gain enough trust.

Summary of Gameplay: 1). Players are randomly given player cards (Patriot, Redcoat or Benedict). 2). Everyone closes their eyes and the Redcoats and Benedict open their eyes to see each other; 3). Then the game begins along with a full on war of deceit, persuasion and cunning weapon play. 4). The first team to win 5 battles wins the game. 5). Benedict should remain discreet through the process. If revealed to be a Redcoat spy they compromise their chance for an early Redcoat Victory!
