Project Parasite

Work together. Hide your role. Choose who to trust. Project Parasite is a social co-op game of bluffing and deduction, with hidden roles and navigation cards for 6–11 players. Gather around a spaceship's circular table: talk, bluff and work together to choose a course. Every crew member secretly belongs to the Alliance, the Resistance or the Parasites. You share the ship, but each faction has its own goals. Only one faction wins each match.Choose your officers. Question their story. The captain appoints a first mate and a navigator. The captain and first mate each draw two cards and pass one along. The navigator chooses between the two shuffled cards without knowing who supplied each one. Discuss what happened before the captain launches the ship. Was that course bad luck—or betrayal?Fight for command Don't trust the captain? Commit your pistols to a mutiny and try to change the command. Contributions stay hidden until the mutiny ends. Spend your resources now, or save them for the next struggle.Yesterday's ally may change overnight Taking the straight course triggers a night phase. While the crew sleeps, Zero Parasite can infect another crew member and bring them onto the Parasites' side. Nighttime communication follows the game's privacy rules. When everyone wakes, yesterday's promises may mean something very different.Use the route to your advantage Scanners reveal a chosen player's faction privately to the captain. Interrogation gives the crew partial information, while the airlock can remove someone from active play. Each special hex can change the balance of trust—and the ship's destination.Find your place at the table Choose your suit colour and express yourself with character gestures.
