Five players. Five roles. The same royal hunt, on your phone or in your browser.

Five hidden roles.
Can you find who’s who?
One card for each player. A different part to play.
Choose a role to uncover its place in the hunt.
The hunt begins with you
The King
A crown is easy to spot.
A Queen? That takes instinct.
The King is revealed at the start. Study the other players, listen to their reactions, and choose who you think holds the Queen.
ROUND 01Hunts the Queen
Guess wrong? Your King card swaps with the player you chose. They become the hunter.
The King starts in the open. The other four roles begin in secret.
02 / Learn the hunt
Trust your instinct.
Question everyone.
Read the room. Make your guess. A miss puts your crown in someone else’s hands.
