It has come time to honor the traditions of the past. The members of our Great Society have gathered to perform the Sacred Rites this summer solstice, honoring our most divine symb ols and idols. Except for the part where not everyone remembers what they were. To play Sacred Rites, players take on the mantles of Believers, each privately informed of the topic of a Rite. The catch: Some (or sometimes none) of the Believers are left out, making them Outsiders. Each Believer then submits what they recall of the Rite, such as the chants, the time of day, the food for the feast, or even the special shapes, smells, or colors. Once each Believer has helped remember the Rite, an accusation occurs: Can each Believer point out an Outsider? Can the Outsiders fake their way through it and guess the topic? In the end, only the most confident, creative, and devout among the Believers will be declared the winner and Master of Ceremonies of the Sacred Rites. Can you sneak your way into a secret society? Each round, there will be an unknown number of outsiders who do not know a secret word. Using creative clues, each player provides the idea for some element of a ritual, with the outsiders trying their best to blend in. After each player has done so, accusations are quickly made and resolved, and players score points for being trustworthy, figuring out the word, and finding outsiders (even if you are an outsider yourself). Gameplay is light, funny, and fast-paced; perfect for any get-together or party. 3-9 Players30 Min Play TimeAges 13+ BL1 Show more
