From the manufacturer

The Resistance (The Dystopian Universe)

The Empire must fall. Our mission must succeed. By destroying their key bases, we will shatter Imperial strength and liberate our people. Yet spies have infiltrated our ranks, ready for sabotage. We must unmask them. In five nights we reshape destiny or die trying. We are the Resistance!

The Resistance is a party game of social deduction. It is designed for 5-10 players, lasts about 30 minutes, and has no player elimination. The Resistance is inspired by Mafia/Werewolf, yet it is unique in its core mechanics, which increase the resources for informed decisions, intensify player interaction, and eliminate player elimination.

    Customers like the entertainment value of the board game. They say it's a very fun game if you can get 5 or more people together, it opens up a huge game dynamic, and manipulating the party is a blast. The game's really intense, and it would be great for parties or game nights. The characters in Avalon are a blow, and this is incredibly simple with very few pieces and zero randomness. Overall, customers are happy with the entertainment that the game provides.

    Simply brilliant - (protect your pieces)
    5 Stars
    Simply brilliant - (protect your pieces)
    A great game you'll play again and again. It's simple to play but yet different every time you play.One word of warning however - you will play the game so often that you will wear out the pieces. The voting tokens, guns and mission tokens are made from thick cardboard. These pieces get used a lot during game play. I was fortunate enough to have learnt from my friends misfortune (he had to make new guns and voting tokens from wood because his wore out).So before you play one game - take some sticky plastic wrap (the type your kids wrap their school books with - see photos) and wrap all the cardboard and even the game play boards.You will not be sorry.The way I covered them was as follows:1. Cut the plastic wrap to the approx dimensions of the piece to be covered (one piece per side), leaving a half inch to inch excess all around.2. Remove the backing and apply to the piece to be covered, apply pressure and smooth out and then trim excess using a Stanley knife - being careful not to cut the cardboard piece.3. Finish it off by using a hairdryer to melt the plastic wrap into the piece - this removes extra air pockets but also gives it a great finishing look.It may take a while to do but will be worth it, you never know what may happen. Dirty or sticky fingers, spilt drinks or food, at least you'll have the peace of mind that the game will not get damaged.For the playing cards I would suggest buying sleeves with a picture/black backing. The expansion packs have a slightly different colour to them , making it possible for the decerning player to pickup. These would be used for the voting cards as well as the character cards. They will both protect them and prevent anyone from noticing the expansion cards from the standard cards. (Chief/defector etc.)
