Agent Double

Double Agent Doppelagent

Players lead double agents, but you only know the loyalty the agents have for yourself.

The board features spaces for the six agents and their influence bars. At the start you place influence markers with the non-activated side up on their spots on the bar. Each player places 6 loyalty markers of values 1, 2, 3, 3, 4 and 5 in front of the agents, you only know your own allocation of values.

In your turn you play a face-down file card to your side of one of the agents - all in all only one ?-marked card can be placed with an agent – and then an open file card for an action that is immediately executed. In your first three moves you can move an influence marker one step in your direction and turn it over to activate it. If the 4th card is played next to an agent his loyalty is checked: Both player reveal their loyalty marker for this agent and take into account influence markers; the cards are either implemented or are won by the player who has won more loyalty from the agent. In case of a tie they are won by the agent with whom the influence marker is is located. Then the agent is out of the game. When an agent is checked this lowers the number of cards necessary von an agent to be checked to three for a neighboring agent. This can result in chain-reaction checking of agents. When only one agent is left or when none of the players has any cards left you win with the most valuable file cards you collected.

Agent Double is a fast sophisticated little card game, somewhat chaotic and with a high bluff factor, not for tacticians, but excellent for all fans of bluff games! And it is lots of fun!
