Deckception

It is graduation season at the Master Spy Academy. To graduate, all spies must complete their assigned secret missions—without revealing their involvement. But nothing stays hidden for long.

In Deckception, players collect evidence from shared card piles to complete their hidden objectives while carefully managing what they reveal to others. Every card you take is public, every move is watched, and every decision could expose your true mission.

Once the evidence runs out, the interrogation begins.

Players take turns as the target while the rest of the group forms a council, questioning, analyzing, and ultimately accusing. Can you successfully deduce everyone else’s mission while keeping your own secret?

Score points by making correct accusations and avoiding suspicion. After three rounds, the spy with the highest score earns the title of Master Spy.
