Traitorish Night
4th August
From 7pm, £15pp
Join us for a thrilling evening of strategy, suspicion and sabotage in this interactive social game where deception is the key to victory. At the start of the evening, one person from every table will be secretly chosen as the Traitor. While teams compete in a series of fun mini-challenges to earn points. The Traitor will be working quietly behind the scenes to sabotage the group. If you are the Traitor, your mission is simple - Mislead your team mates, disrupt the challenges, and secretly eliminate players without being discovered.
Throughout the night, players must debate, accuse and vote to banish who they believe is working against them. But be careful …. Trust the wrong person and your team could lose everything.
Banished from the table? The game isn’t over! The banished players become “The Rejects Team, who still have the chance to compete and potentially steal the final victory.
Expect dramatic votes, surprising betrayals and plenty of laughter as everyone tries to work out who they can really trust.
Recommended age 16+
