## Overview

The Resistance: Avalon is a fast-paced social deduction card game for 5 to 10 players aged 13 and up. Set in an immersive Arthurian world, players take on secret roles as loyal knights or Mordred’s minions, using logic, bluffing, and teamwork to complete missions or sabotage them. With quick 30-minute rounds, easy-to-learn rules, and high replayability, Avalon is perfect for game nights, parties, and travel. Its compact design and integration with other popular games like Coup make it a must-have for fans of strategic bluffing and tense social gameplay.

## Description

Product Description The Resistance Avalon is a fast social deduction game where five to ten players take on secret roles in the world of King Arthur. Some players are loyal knights who want missions to succeed, while others serve Mordred and try to make them fail. Before each mission the group debates, chooses a team, and then secretly votes for success or failure. Every vote and accusation gives clues about who can be trusted, but traitors will lie and bluff to stay hidden. Merlin knows which players are evil, yet must guide the table without revealing his identity, because the Assassin wins if Merlin is correctly named at the end of the game. Simple rules make it easy to teach in minutes, and a full game usually finishes in about thirty minutes, making it an ideal choice for parties and game nights. Avalon fits well with mixed experience groups, since new players can follow their instincts while veterans explore deeper layers of table talk, signaling, and misdirection. The compact card format makes the game easy to pack for travel or conventions, and high replay value comes from different role combinations and ever changing group dynamics. Fans of bluffing, tense decisions, and dramatic reveals will find Avalon a standout addition to any board game collection. From the Manufacturer The Resistance: Avalon pits the forces of Good and Evil in a battle to control the future of civilization. Arthur represents the future of Britain, a promise of prosperity and honor, yet hidden among his brave warriors are Mordred's unscrupulous minions. These forces of evil are few in number but have knowledge of each other and remain hidden from all but one of Arthur's servants. Merlin alone knows the agents of evil, but he must speak of this only in riddles. If his true identity is discovered, all will be lost.

Review: Quick, Fun, and Perfect for Groups - This is a great game that really makes you think. It’s perfect for groups and creates lots of fun interaction. The box is a convenient size, making it easy to transport, and the rules are simple to understand. Games are quick, engaging, and very fun.
Review: Ridiculous FUN! - I almost didn't buy Avalon because of its theme, since (as far as themes go) my group would have much preferred the dystopia theme of the original games. But, I was really interested in this game mechanic, for the social aspect, the deduction, the team work balanced with competition, the arguing, and the LYING, MMHWAHAHA!!! I am really glad I went with Avalon despite our theme preferences, because the roles really do add a lot of interesting twists, and you can use them in different combinations. So I bought it, talked it up to the group, and convinced them to try it (and sneakily said nothing about the theme until they were excited to play). It was LOADS of fun!!! The first night we played, we went for almost 3 hours... Everyone kept saying, "one more!", and "again!" The second time we played we also went for almost 3 hours, but would have gone longer if it weren't super late at night... Both times we played with 5, and it was great fun to learn more about how your friends act totally innocent one minute, and then totally fool you the next... There is also fun from observing everyone's strategies, and finding out your friends' preferred styles, and what kinds of deceit they are capable of! Some of our players much preferred the special roles, while others really like being a regular good guy, because that's when you really have to exercise your powers of deduction. Anyway, both times we played with 5 people, and I can't wait to play with more. The Resistance: Avalon has so many interesting and fun elements, and I have yet to play with someone who didn't really love it. It is quick to play, easy to learn, but full of nuances and variability. If you are even considering it, I'd say try it out - it's lots of fun for serious and occasional gamers as well. PS: We are considering replacing the team voting cardstock tokens with black and white marbles and 2 dice cups for voting (one for votes, and the other for non-votes), since our tokens are getting pretty beat up after a couple of nights... But the components seem nice, and that's probably because our group gets really into the game, slamming cards and all :)

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Another reviewer claimed that this game includes the original The Resistance game with this pack, is that true or must they be purchased separately?**
A: They must be purchased separately, but if you play without the "Merlin" and "Assassin" role cards it will be the same game (though in my opinion less fun ; the role cards are why I bought the Avalon version)

**Q: Does Avalon work with the 2 current expansions?**
A: Yes, sortof.  You have to remove the role cards from Avalon to set it up as basic Resistance.  The expansions that add new characters cards will not work with Avalon, unless you use sleeves that hide the card backs.   You don't need the Hidden Agenda expansion because Avalon is a mashup of The Resistance with Hidden Agenda.

**Q: Has anyone had experience playing Avalon WITH The Resistance game?  The games can be combined... but what does that look like? How? Is it awesome?**
A: You can play The Resistance with the new roles from Avalon, or you can play Avalon with the plot cards from The Resistance. The Resistance is improved by the new roles, which you can also get with the same theme via the http://www.amazon.com/Resistance-Hidden-Agenda-Card-Game/dp/B00OVZ693W/ref=pd_sim_21_2?ie=UTF8&refRID=0AF032SF6SW4XYWNH0MP expansion. The plot cards offer a deeper level of play, but are more complex and make games longer.

**Q: What are the dimensions when shipped? (volumetric and actual)**
A: The box of the game itself is 8x6x2 inches, not very large. I don't recall the size of the box that Amazon sent it in (I had other items in that package I believe).

My social deduction game of all time! The quality is excellent. The design of the game is excellent. It's always a ton of fun to play. The learning curve is a little bit to get over, but everyone that I've taught the game to has come to beg to play again!
