Mantis Falls

Step onto the dark, film-noir roads of mob-ruled Mantis Falls in the 1940s, where you and your companion are witnesses hunted for your information. Mantis Falls is a strategic hidden traitor game designed for a uniquely low player count (2-3 players), resulting in an intimate and heart-pounding experience of trust and betrayal.

The core of the game is its "sometimes cooperative" format. You must survive the night and escape town alive, frequently cooperating and trusting one another to navigate the darkness. However, the catch is that each game may be entirely witnesses (forcing shared victory) or have a hidden assassin among you, subtly manipulating the situation. This creates high player interaction, demanding nuanced conversation, detailed hand-management, and tactical card play. You'll make concealed moves and develop hidden plans, but must also defend choices and bluff to protect carefully guarded secrets. The game features suit-based action cards and diverse combo effects, making it a great choice for tactical thinkers. Along your slow walk, you will seek allies, acquire tools, and become encumbered by grave afflictions.

Mantis Falls is perfect for couples and small groups, offering a deep journey that makes you feel the profound power—and danger—that comes from the ability to trust.
