Synopsis

Wednesday: Friend or Woe is a social deduction game for 3 to 8 players based in the world of the hit show. All players have a hidden identity which will cast them as characters from the series. For ages 12+.

The enemies of Nevermore Academy are trying to ruin the school’s reputation and get it shut down for good! But Wednesday and her fellow students are trying to prevent that from happening by successfully investigating suspicious activity. Each player assumes a unique character from the beloved series, whether that’s Wednesday, Enid, Marilyn Thornhill, Tyler, Principal Weems, or more. Your mission is to use your cards to successfully investigate a series of mysteries, deduce the true identities of your fellow players, and help your team fulfill your goal. Keep an eye on the other players as you try to uncover who is on your side and who is working against you.

Players take on new identifies each time you play, so it’s a different game every time. But the mystery remains the same: someone wants to wreak havoc and ruin Nevermore's reputation in the process. Will you work to thwart the devious plot or secretly let Nevermore Academy be shuttered? The only thing that’s for sure is that you can’t trust anyone.
