The snowfall was sudden. All the people who were on the mountain had to go to the old rural house. The landlord, the tenants of those days and all who came to shelter had to live together until the storm passed. Little food, maybe too much alcohol to fight the heat, the reality was what happened ... One of the people woke up dead. With the great snowfall they have been held incommunicado, and it is expected that they will be isolated for another 10 days. The author of crime believes that 4 people in the house have seen him, so he decides that he has to kill them before 10 nights are up and they're back in touch. So no one will be able to decide to the police that he is the murderer. The theory is very beautiful but... Can you get it? Or will he be discovered and brought to justice?

At the start of every game, each player receives a “role card” and a “character card”.

There are two roles: murderer and innocent. There will always be one murderer, being the rest of the players “innocent”. You have to keep your role and your character in secret at all times.

Characters token will be dealt randomly across the board, placing four of them in each room.

Following that, four character cards will be selected randomly. Characters from those cards will be taking the role of witnesses and their chips will be faced down to differentiate form the rest, (ending up in black and white).

Game’s objective differs depending on each player’s role:

• Innocents will try to guess the murderer, i.e., finding which player and character plays that role in the game.
• The murderer will try to eliminate all the witnesses without being discovered before 10 nights.

The game lasts 10 turns divided in two phases: night and day, stating the first turn in the night. During the night, which lasts 15 seconds, all players will close their eyes, except for the murderer, which silently will open them and make his play. This play can consist of:

• Not making any move.
• Murder a character that is on the same room as the murderer.
• Move any character (including witnesses or himself) to an adjacent room.
• A combination of two of the previous actions.

The murderer cannot kill the character he has moved. Once the murderer kills, he will put his victim above the witness card.

After ending this phase, the day will start, and every player will open their eyes.

During the day phase, which lasts for 45 seconds, each player can make just one movement, that can be moving any character, only if it is not a witness, to the adjacent room. In case of considering it necessary, the player can make no movements.

Also during the day is when every player can propose an accusation of murder to someone. The accusation works in the following way:

• There can only be one accusation. In case of failure, the murderer will win automatically.
• The accusation is combined, meaning that it is compulsory that everybody, except for the accused is willing to do the accusation.
• It is required to say who the murderer is and what is his character.

Mode: Professional Assassin

For those who really consider themselves "expert assassins", they can opt for a more strategic game mode and less " party", where they change the victory condition. Now the killer has to prevent them from discovering only who his character is. The innocent therefore will win only by discovering the identity of the murderer character, not being necessary to identify the player. Are you ready?.
