Awesome review! Bought the game and it's been a HUGE hit with my friends and gaming buddies! When I teach it to new people, I tend to start off by telling them that "it's like 'Mafia,' but not terrible and boring for most of the players."
At 1:15 you had already sold the game to me. Just seeing you so excited about the game instantly made me decide to buy it!! Thanks for another great review!
Since I seldom have more than 5 players in my game group, I'll pass on this one. I have Bang!, Shadow Hunters, and BSG to sate my "hidden allegiance" mechanic anyway.
We played this at our game night for the first time tonight. Great game and everybody agreed t hat we should play it again. (We played with 7 people. 3-2 for the resistance)
My first review by Tom! Thanks, it really makes me feel like Indie Boards and Cards has made it to the next level.
For those wondering, the game is virtually sold out of its 2nd printing in the United States and English speaking parts of Canada. I believe all the US online game stores are out, but I suspect that many copies of the game are on the shelves of your local game stores. Copies are available in Europe and Quebec.
The third printing will be in stores at the end of May.
@EvilChicken666 I think its more like rethemed, reworked Werewolf or Bang, BSG used their mechanics and added different complexity to it, I wouldn't say they started there and worked back though.
Played it for the first time today.
Had my doubts but was excited for it. It did not disappoint!

If I keep watching these reviews, I'll end up buying too many games and I'll have no choice but to live in a FFG box! ;)

I really do like small boxes or rather boxes just big enough to hold the game.

Resistance lost 6 times in a row before winning twice in a row. Maybe we're finally starting to get it.

warning to new players: this game is very difficult for the resistance, especially when you play with 5 players.
I think 6 is really balanced because of 4/2 spread. Maybe 7 is too because you get more plot cards, I don't know though.

Great review Tom. I'm sold.
BSG is too long for what it is, and werewolf needs a moderator. This game looks perfect and has cool theme.

Lools like a very very simplified Battlestar Galactica.

@BanzaiM50 I'm not saying they took the idea. I have played only a few boardgames and BSG is one of them. I don't have much room for comparison.

@EvilChicken666 Ah, well at least its a good game to have a reference to, that makes more sense.
