Frayed Ally

Frayed Ally is a party card game filled with deduction, strategy, and explosive misfortune for 3-6+ players. In the untamed streets of Sewer City, a battle for survival unfolds. Don the cloak of a random crafty character, each with their own unique special ability that can be used at pivotal moments to outlast your adversaries. The villain with a thirst for power and destruction, commands an army of loyal minions, determined to take down all rival animals. Rivals on the other paw are fighting for glory, battling to deal the final blow that defeats the villain and become champion of the city. However if no villain is in play, it becomes a classic battle royale, last character standing. Strategically wield an array of action cards to outmanoeuvre your opponents, use them to your advantage to boost your defences or enhance your attack but beware of traps hidden within the deck. Traps create an added element of danger, they will deal instant damage to disrupt your carefully crafted plans and are especially dangerous end game. With every successful attack, characters collect skull tokens to track damage taken until they inevitably fall. When critical with only one health point remaining, a player must reveal their character by flipping it face up on the field and that's how you discover who is in play. Revealed characters are now at your most vulnerable but also at their strongest. Special ability can be used once at any time per reveal to help claw back to the top. The path to victory lies within the paws of the craftiest Frayed Ally. —description from the designer
