What are some good tabletop games about deception?

Over the Edge
>>46485222
Secret Hitler.
Game of Thrones, maybe.
Avalon, though if you play it too much, you'll wind up resenting that the game revolves around just lying bold-facedly to each other.

Why? It's not like they even try to hide their horns anymore. There are just enough fan boys left
Diplomacy. For real.
>>46485222
Delta Green
>>46485222
Werewolf and all its variants, and The Resistance.
>>46485222
Battlestar Galactica. Good even if you don't really like the TV revamp.

Can you play secret hittler in a public library?
>>46485222
Monopoly with my family, because they're all thieving cunts who'll raid the bank whenever the banker isn't looking, then try to lie about it.
>>46486198
As long as you don't shout too loud, maybe.
It's perfect for bars, though.

Get a group of people. The majority are liberals, the minority are fascists. One of the fascists is Hitler. The fascists know who other fascists are and who Hitler is. Hitler doesn't know shit. Liberals don't know shit. Liberals want to advance liberal policies and win the game with five of them, but liberal policies do nearly nothing. Fascists want to win the game with six fascist policies, but each fascist policy does something, such as kill someone. Liberals also win if they manage to kill Hitler through these fascist policies, while fascists also win if they elect Hitler as chancellor past a certain stage.
Think of Mafia or Werewolf, just streamlined and full of people calling each other fascists and Hitler.

Paranoia

Yeah but
>liberals
>against Hitler
I take it you mean liberals in theory rather than in a modern context. As Hitler was incredibly far left in his policies, the only exception here being nationalism.

An RPG I enjoy with my friends is Paranoia. They have to go out on a mission assigned by Friend Computer (who hates communism and sets up a post-apocalyptic communist society to find communism and destroy it). Problem with that is that most of the details of the mission is above the PC's security clearance, they get shoddy experimental tools that may backfire on them, and they know nothing about how anything works because everyone who might assist them is hyped up on happiness drugs, as mandated by Friend Computer. The real nail in the coffin is that every PC has a mutant power (which is traitorous and punishable by termination) and belongs to a secret society who have a mission that is usually illegal and interferes with the mission at hand. Everyone gets six clones because death is pretty frequent. It isn't a Paranoia campaign without a building being unnecessarily blown up or unleashing some sort of menace upon the people. Our last mission was Christmas-themed (it's been a while) and the PCs caused irradiated snow to cascade down and killed the man dressed up as Santa Claus. They tied Sandy's carcass on top of a hovercar and propped him up for the children, only for them to accidentally cause a riot because they loaded the gifts with guns and rage-inducing experimental gum (because they destroyed the gifts in a misunderstanding). Needless to say, they were all executed.

second, all edge aside. I gotta ask if you have an education background past the 8th grade.
>socialist
>pro-welfare reform
>feminist policies

This is common knowledge.

Oh, and might I add
>intense hatred for bankers

Whole point is lying to your friends

Maybe it'll be better if you watch an example, rather than try to overthink the terms used in the game.

I'm going to need better rules for this
>>46486014
Can confirm. Even though it doesn't seem like a role-playing game, within the first couple of turns everyone is playing along with a role.
>>46485251
My nigga. I wish tis system was popular enough to warrant an occasional thread.
>>46486014
One of my favorites. It takes forever to play though, so I don't get to play often, unfortunately.

Oh, anon. Their entire sales strategy for both game systems is based on deception, manipulation, and pulling the wool over your eyes/rug out from under you.
