How It Plays

  1. Guests arrive in togas, receive sealed scrolls, coins, and notebooks.
  2. The Host declaims the Opening Oration — Act I begins.
  3. Each Act deals new Decree cards that leak intel, issue challenges, and drip evidence onto the marble floor.
  4. Senators barter favors, flaunt Latin one-liners, and raise formal accusations by striking the cedar urn.
  5. At midnight the final vote is cast. Laurels, virtue chips, and suspicion markers crown the victor—or condemn the guilty.

Perfect For…

  • Murder-mystery veterans seeking a fresh historical sandbox
  • Game-night hosts who love immersive décor and theatre
  • Team-building, birthdays, or a dramatic dinner party
