Verona Twist

About this board game

Verona Twist is a two-player board game from 2018 with an approximate play time of 30 minutes. Each day, six well-known Veronese figures appear on the square—but two of them are not what they seem.

At the heart of the game is a secret disguise. Romeo and Juliet have been hidden in the clothes of other figures, creating a concealed identity that one player must protect while the other tries to uncover it.

• The Nurse: disguises Romeo and Juliet in the clothes of other figures and aims to keep their secret safe.
• The Capulet: takes the role of the other player, facing the hidden identities on the square.

The daily appearance of the six figures gives Verona Twist its central mystery. Although the square presents a familiar group of Veronese characters, two figures conceal Romeo and Juliet beneath their apparent identities.

With two players taking opposing roles, the game focuses on the tension between protecting a secret and confronting an uncertain cast of characters. The Nurse must preserve the disguise, while the Capulet faces the challenge of the concealed Romeo and Juliet.

Verona Twist offers a compact game experience built around hidden identities and the contrast between appearance and reality. Its setting draws on well-known Veronese figures, while its central premise turns their daily appearance on the square into a focused contest of secrecy.
