About this board game

Web of Spies is an espionage strategy game for 2–4 players that plays in about 60 minutes. Set across exotic locations, it challenges rival agencies to acquire powerful assets, manipulate opponents, and eliminate enemy agents.

Each turn, you draw five cards from your own personal deck. Every card offers flexible possibilities, creating meaningful choices as you decide where to send your spies and how to strengthen your agency.

  • Move: Spend any card to move a spy on the board.
  • Acquire: Spend one or more cards to obtain an asset in a city you control.
  • Sabotage: Use clever card effects to manipulate opponents and gain the upper hand.
  • Attack: Engage enemy spies with vehicles, weapons, and other assets from your arsenal.

Acquiring assets helps each player develop a unique set of resources, shaping their play style throughout the game. The tension comes from balancing long-term growth with the right moment to use your most powerful tools.

Should you expand your influence, prepare another asset, or strike before an opponent is ready? With only five cards in hand, every decision matters, and flexible card use keeps the tactical action focused and unpredictable.

Web of Spies ends when any player is eliminated, revealing the strongest agency as the winner. First released in 2014, it combines travel, acquisition, sabotage, and direct conflict in an epic struggle of spycraft, action, and intrigue.
