When an unscrupulous business magnate meets an undignified end, a fierce competition for his estate begins. In Hoax, three to six players each take on the secret identity of a member of Vargas family or household. No matter what your identity, your goal is to eliminate all your competitors by catching them in a lie – but making a false accusation will take you out of the game. If you want to make informed accusations, you must amass resources and spend them to investigate other players. To win, you have to both avoid accusations and judiciously make them, all the while making your opponents believe that all your lies are true. Whoever is devious enough to outlast all the other players wins!
