Author: Frederic Moyersoen "Saboteur" is a game where players connect cards to dig tunnels, and depending on their secret role—either "gold digger" or "saboteur"—they aim to reach the gold nugget or prevent it, respectively, competing for the number of gold nuggets as a reward. Players start by placing cards to connect paths, aiming to unearth the gold nuggets located far away.
However, role cards are distributed to each player beforehand, and 2-3 "saboteurs" whose objective is to prevent reaching the gold nuggets are mixed in. Therefore, it's necessary to discern who is an ally and who is an enemy to avoid being obstructed.
Saboteurs will block paths with dead-end cards and so on. Players should use "prohibit" cards to restrain those who act suspiciously. However, someone might take a "rescue" action, claiming "that person is alright." Gradually, the saboteurs will begin to reveal their true nature.
If the gold nugget card is reached by successfully suppressing the saboteurs, the diligent gold digger team wins. Conversely, if the gold nugget card cannot be reached even after running out of deck and hand cards, the saboteur team wins.
Distribute the gold nugget cards that serve as points among the winning team.
The game is then played again from the beginning, and after three rounds, the game ends. The player who has collected the most gold nuggets is the winner.
