A bluffing deduction game for everyone.
Each round involves two missions, depending on whether you’re the Chameleon or not.
Mission 1: You are the Chameleon. No one knows your identity except you. Your mission is to blend in, not get caught and to work out the Secret Word.
Mission 2: You are not the Chameleon. Try to work out who the Chameleon is without giving away the Secret Word.
At the beginning of the round each player receives a card that tells them if they are the Chameleon or hunting the Chameleon.
