Saboteur

Dig for gold - or stop others getting there - in Saboteur, a game that suits a social atmosphere. Because it can handle up to 10 players and can be finished within half an hour, Saboteur is an ideal title to bring out at parties or any large gathering.

Price: $18.00

As dwarves digging in a gold mine, players must race to be the dwarf with the most gold nuggets at the end of the three rounds. The only trouble is, one or more of the players in your midst could be a Saboteur, and their goal is to do everything possible to thwart your plans.

Lanterns, pick-axes, and mining trolleys can all be sabotaged and repaired. Will the next path card guide you closer to the gold? Or will a Saboteur force you into a dead end? And at the end of it all, will you find gold, or just a worthless lump of coal?

As a great filler game, Saboteur should definitely be on your list to buy!

Our thoughts:

We love to use Saboteur as a simple filler to start an evening of gaming. It’s a great opportunity for a lot of laughter and banter, especially when we have several players.
