Cabin of Shadows - Dueling Impostors- Reviews

TL;DR 1v1 social deduction game, that really boils down to chance. Now that is not to say there's no fun in the talk and there is some deduction, but the more you play you realize there's no real "truthful" action to back up your claims. Definitely an interesting concept though, and might be worth is depending on your view on cost vs enjoyment. The Good: Each round is short and concise enough that playing a few rounds will let you figure things out with the explanations. Interesting take at doing a social deduction with just 2 people. Visuals are enough to set the situation, nothing too extraordinary. The Bad: The real social deduction only comes from talking since actions won't "really" back up your claims, which means that in the end there's really nothing believe except cards that you see. Having to create a room for every rule adjustment can be an inconvenience. The "ready to choose" button at the corner is easy to miss. The variation in the probability of the roles are rather unclear since it only seems to change the number value of each role's draw probability. As mentioned before, it's a social deduction game, so talk is everything. However, it is also kind of meaningless, since there is nothing to really back up their claims since you will not share anything useful. You either have everything you need to know from your cards, or you'll have to leave it to chance based on how many cards are in the deck. For the price... ehh you're not missing out on much either way. 4/10
