FaeKin

About this board game

FaeKin is a fast-paced social deduction game for 2–9 players that plays in around 15 minutes. With the balance between the Summer and Winter courts shattered, players must uncover who truly serves each side.

Everyone can lie, but no one has to. Mischief, deception, and silence are all valid choices as you duel fellow Fae, study hidden information, and decide when to make a claim. The game rewards convincing arguments, careful observation, and the courage to act before the truth is revealed.

During secret duels, players play cards face down, then peek, bluff, and expose. When the moment is right, touch the Crown and Dagger to make a claim. Once that decision is cast, the hidden truth comes to light.

• Play with 2–9 players in a game lasting about 15 minutes.
• Use 32 mystical Fae tarot cards in secret duels and dramatic reveals.
• Choose whether to lie, mislead, or remain silent.
• Race to crown the right heir and dagger the right enemy.

To win, your Court must identify both targets correctly: crown the rightful Heir and dagger the correct enemy. Choose one wrong, and the rival Court claims victory instead, making every accusation a potentially decisive risk.

With its combination of hidden roles, face-down cards, claims, and sudden revelations, FaeKin creates an elegant and dangerous test of deduction. No two games are ever the same as players shape each confrontation through what they reveal, conceal, and believe.
