The Party Line Rules 6.0

This week our developers worked on rulebook updates. In previous play tests we heard a lot of input that the game needed a little more order and more opportunities to sus out the opposition.

The dev team rolled out a revised vote and turn order to make the game flow better. The Chair will now be chosen at random and then voting will start with the chair and go clockwise around the table. With these rules, players no longer need to rush their vote, and it gives more time for deal making.

We also limited trades of Party Line info to one player. Trades now function like the telephone game. A player with Party Line info may give that info to one other player. But no one said they had to give correct information. As always, be careful who you trust in The Party Line Game. Now Ops have another tool for adding deceit and chaos and Purists and Loyalists have another potential clue to consider when deciding who is truly on the Farmer’s side. You decide who to trust.

The cost of the Farmers Window has been reduced to two wild Grapevine cards. This will encourage more players to invest in getting their Role power back for a second use during the game. The cost of Apple Box has been reduced to two Sour Grapevine cards. Be prepared for more attacks.
