What to Expect
In Quest, players take on secret roles as Good or Evil, hidden among King Arthur’s loyal servants. You debate, bluff, and reason to decide who to send on quests, knowing that even one evil minion can cause failure. The game mixes hidden roles, deduction, and team-based play in quick 30-minute sessions full of social interaction.
Who Is This Game For?
Quest is aimed at players aged 14 and up who enjoy interactive group games with social dynamics. It's a medium-weight game that requires some experience with bluffing and deduction, ideal for larger groups looking for engaging short sessions.
How It Works
Players receive hidden roles that assign them to Good or Evil factions. Through simultaneous action selection, everyone chooses quest participants at the same time. Using deduction and memory, players try to identify Mordred’s minions. The asymmetric information and team-based mechanics create tense social gameplay as you strive to succeed in your quests.
