Opération Zèbre

About this board game

Opération Zèbre is a deduction and knowledge game for 2–12 players, with sessions lasting around 45 minutes. Players receive a classified document and must help others guess the subject by carefully removing information from the card.

First, cross out as many lines as possible. Every piece of information left visible generates suspicion about your group, and too much suspicion can make you lose. However, remove too much and your teammates may no longer have enough information to identify the answer. Once the text has been edited, read what remains aloud and hope your team understands the message.

The game supports both cooperative play and team-based games, so the group can choose the format that best suits the table. Novice and advanced modes let you adjust the difficulty, making Opération Zèbre suitable for players with different levels of gaming experience.

Its 490 classified documents cover eight broad themes:

• Films
• Series
• Characters
• Personalities
• Monuments
• Natural sites
• Cities
• Territories

With its unusual combination of clue removal, spoken information, group deduction, and suspicion management, Opération Zèbre offers a knowledge game unlike the usual question-and-answer format. Choose your mode, decide how challenging to make the clues, and see whether the remaining lines reveal just enough.
