[microfilms] is a micro-deduction game set in the world of [redacted]. Designed by David J. Mortimer (Pocket Imperium) and Dávid Turczi ([redacted]), [microfilms] pits spy against spy in the Ambassador’s high-stakes game of intel and intrigue. Be the first player to find the intel and reveal the identities of your opponents, and you’ll infiltrate the Ambassador’s organization. Reveal your hand too soon, and you’ll end up in the shark tank.
Should you choose to try your hand at the Ambassador’s game, you will play as either an agent or a freelancer. Agents are trying to locate intel and clear their names. Freelancers all have a unique agenda and disrupt the Ambassador’s plans.
Roles are randomly chosen and distributed based on the amount of players. Action cards are distributed and the remaining action, item, Alliance, and microfilm cards are shuffled together to form the draw deck. Poker chips are then passed out to set players, and everyone receives one Suspicion token.
