About the game

What is Traitors Aboard?

Traitors Aboard is a hidden role party game that combines strategy, bluffing, and social interactions. In Traitors Aboard, you take on the role of a Pirate who will try to fill the crew’s chest or a Mutineer who will do everything to discreetly sabotage the Pirates’ collection and sow chaos aboard the ship. Throughout the game, make sure to discuss, question, and share information (true or false) with the other players to coordinate your efforts or betray them at the right time... Will you be able to identify the members of your team, be cunning, and use the items aboard the ship strategically to win? Now, the fate of the crew lies in your hands...!
