Description
Bluff, Bribe, and Outwit to Seize Power
Coup is a fast-paced game of deception, deduction, and calculated risk where you vie for control of a corrupt Italian city-state. As the head of a powerful family, your goal is to eliminate the influence of rival families through manipulation, cunning bluffs, and strategic plays — until only you remain.
Each player starts with two hidden character cards, representing their influence. On your turn, you can take actions based on the characters you claim to be — but watch out! Opponents can challenge your claim, forcing you to reveal the truth. Lose both of your characters, and you’re out of the game. Quick, intense, and endlessly replayable, Coup delivers high-stakes tension in just minutes.
