Get launch news How a round goes Coming to PC on Steam

Three ways to ruin a friendship

Every round has a moment where someone decides something against you. Then it's your turn.

Duel!

Land on them

End your move on a rival's space and you fight a quick duel: lunge, feint or guard. The winner steals coins. Beat the leader and you take a trophy too.

Sold!

Outbid them in secret

Rare perks, keys and trophies go to auction. Everyone bids at the same time without seeing the others. The highest bid wins, and pays.

Betrayed

Split, or take it all

Win a team game and you and your partner each pick split or betray in secret. Betray a partner who splits and you keep the whole pot.

How a round goes

Four steps, then the next round. The last three rounds pay double.

  1. Turns

    One player moves at a time. Pass the trophy and you can stop there to buy it.

  2. Auction

    Every few rounds, a sealed-bid auction. Everyone bids at once.

  3. Bets

    Bet coins on who wins the minigame. The further behind you are, the more it pays.

  4. Minigame

    Everyone plays at once. The top three take coins, and the winner picks a turn spot first.

A wooden figure on the canyon board, with lit paths showing the spaces it can reach between a saloon and a general store

Everyone watches your turn

While you pick a path, the others see the space you're pointing at, live, and tell you where to go. Some of them are even honest.

Coins buy perks that last all game

Shops are real places on the board, like the saloon porch or the general store. Each perk costs 6 to 12 coins and stays with you until the end. Hold up to four.

Two boards to fight across

Each board sits on the host's table between two candles, with its own shortcuts, shops and hazards.

The canyon board on the host's table: a desert mining town split by a blue river, with the host's wooden hands at the edges

The Canyon

A desert mining town split by a river, with rope bridges, mine lifts and a saloon.

The mansion board on the host's table: rooms on several floors, a clock tower and a flooded cellar

The Heirs' Mansion

From the flooded cellar up to the clock tower, with a secret bookcase and a laundry chute that drops you to the basement.

Build a figure out of wooden pieces

Start from six ready-made sets, then mix hats, hair, faces, moustaches and sashes on one wooden body.

  • Earn wood chips by playing, and spend them on new pieces.

  • Every betrayal adds a mark to your figure, for the whole table to see.

  • Every piece is earned by playing. Nothing is sold.

Bring friends with a room code

One player opens a room and shares the code. Friends join with it, and bots take the empty seats. You can also practise alone against bots.

Questions

  • How many players per game?

    Two to four, online. Bots take any empty seat.

  • Can I play alone?

    Yes. Play against bots to learn the boards and the minigames.

  • Who is the host?

    You only ever see the host's wooden hands. They roll the die, light the candles and knock things over.

    No. Every piece for your figure is earned by playing.
