Board Game - The Resistance 3rd Edition (EN)

Our plan is flawless. By destroying key Empire bases, we will undermine its power and free our people. To sabotage operations, they have sent spies into our ranks, but we will soon expose them. For the next five nights, we will change the course of history or perish. We are the Resistance. The Empire will fall!

The Resistance is a social deduction game for 5 to 10 players. A game lasts from 10 minutes to half an hour. The Resistance was inspired by games like Mafia and Werewolf but differs from them by having a larger amount of game information for decision-making, intense player interaction, and no player elimination.

 
Players can be either true Resistance activists or Imperial spies. The game consists of 3-5 rounds of missions during which participants must try to figure out each other's sides and determine whom to trust. Each round begins with a discussion, after which the leader assigns participants for the current mission. Players vote on whether they agree with this choice. Then, those sent on the mission secretly choose to support or sabotage it, depending on their side. Depending on these results, the mission may be successfully completed (the Resistance's goal) or fail spectacularly (the Empire's goal). The team that wins three missions wins the game.

The Resistance 3rd Edition is a dynamic social-psychological game about hidden roles, deception, and deduction, in which players find themselves as part of an underground movement fighting against a totalitarian regime. Some players belong to the Resistance and aim to complete a series of missions, while others are spies trying to derail plans while remaining undetected. The game is built on discussions, suspicion, and attempts to deduce whom to trust. Each game creates a tense atmosphere where any word and action can change the course of the game. The third edition includes updated components and improved balance while maintaining the classic mechanics that made The Resistance one of the most popular games in the genre.
