In Task Team, two teams go head-to-head over a task while the third referees.
Play with three people or three teams for even more fun!

Aim of the Game
Be the first team to win seven madcap tasks.

Setup
Split into three teams. There must be at least one player in each team.
There does not have to be the same number of players in each team.
Shuffle the cards and create a pile: This will form the deck.
Keep the equipment within easy reach.

Playing the Game
During each round, two teams go head-to-head over the same task
while the third team acts as the Referee.
The first task will be deciding which two teams will go first: Rock paper scissors, arm wrestling, catch – you decide – we don’t want to know!

The Referee team draws a card and reads it aloud.
This tells the players:

How long they have to do the task: 1 sand timer, 2 sand timers, or no time limit.
The number of players required per team: 1 player, 2 players, or the whole team.
The equipment needed.
The task itself.


When everyone is ready, the Referee team starts the countdown by saying: “Ready? Task Team!”
The two participating teams then madly scramble to win the task.
The team who wins the task gets the card and puts it in front of them.
After each task, the teams swap roles for the next round:

The team who won the previous task stays in the competition.
The team who refereed the last task plays the winning team.
The losing team becomes the Referee.


End of the Game
The first team to win seven Task cards is declared the winner.

Notes
The Referee team’s decisions are final.
If a task ends in a draw, draw another card to decide the winner.
Before each task, the team members decide together who is taking part in the task. Make sure that everyone gets an equal chance to take part.

In Ciao! you want to say goodbye to the cards in your hand as quickly as possible.

Each player starts with a hand of seven cards; cards show either rock, paper or scissors, and they are colored either green, yellow or red. Some cards have special icons on them, such as play again or draw three cards. Cards are ranked in typical RPS order, but red beats yellow, which beats green.

On a turn, you play a card to the discard pile that beats the card showing on top, whether by playing paper on rock or by playing a higher ranked paper than what's already there. If you can't play, you draw one card, then play that card if possible.

The first player to empty their hand wins!

Guests arrive at a mansion for what they hope will be a relaxing weekend, but alas the calm of Friday night is broken when a cry of fright rings out. The guests wake up and gather only to be horrified with the discovery of the lifeless body of one of them. Who could have killed him? And more importantly, who will be the next victim?

Fatal Rendez Vous plays a bit like Werewolf, with most players belonging to one group while one or more of them secretly work against the group. Each player receives a role card at the start of play. Each night in the game, while everyone has their eyes closed, one of the secret assassins taps another player on the shoulder; this player counts to ten, then dies. Day comes, and everyone runs around in a tizzy — specifically turning in circles three times — during which time the other assassin winks at someone, killing that person as well.

The guests handcuff two players during the day, and those two players take no actions for the next day. This pattern continues until three days pass. If the assassins have been handcuffed together during the weekend, then the other guests win, having captured the evildoers; if not, however, the assassins claim the victory.

Fatal Rendez Vous includes special role cards that mix up play, for example, with a player who becomes a vampire after death, taking out the assassin and murdering people on his own. Another player might have a weak heart and perish after only five seconds, giving the assassin less time to find cover.


From TricTrac:

Le Défifoo Noir (subtitled Friday the 13th at the Castle) is a game inspired by Cluedo and Agatha Christie’s 12 Little Indians and is another game in the lineage of Werewolf. It is designed by Olivier Finet, principal designer at Défifoo SA. The game can accommodate 5 to 20 players and play time is estimated at 30 minutes.

Players are given a special role representing either an innocent guest at the castle or a sinister murderer. The players are invited to investigate the murders and hopefully throw the right suspect(s) in prison. In this game however, people are free to move around during the day phases and interact freely with one another, thereby using all of their senses to nab their victims/assailants. These negotiation phases however are timed and last only 3 minutes. Making things harder on the poor guests, the murders happen both at night and during the day over a maximum of 5 turns. The game components include the role cards, a pair of handcuffs (for the culprits), a timer and a bowtie for the Castle’s host (game overseer).
