The Chameleon

A bluffing deduction game for everyone.

In this board game, your job is to blend in and not get caught. Everyone else is trying to work out who the Chameleon is. Everyone suspects everyone else at the beginning. Using one carefully chosen word based on a secret topic, you each try to smoke out the Chameleon, who doesn’t know what the secret topic. 

Each round involves two missions, depending on whether you’re the Chameleon or not.

Mission 1: You are the Chameleon. No one knows your identity except you. Your mission is to blend in, not get caught and to work out the Secret Word.

Mission 2: You are not the Chameleon. Try to work out who the Chameleon is without giving away the Secret Word.

At the beginning of the round each player receives a card that tells them if they are the Chameleon or hunting the Chameleon. Two dice are rolled and this gives everyone (except the Chameleon) the coordinates to a specific word on a Topic Card – this is the Secret Word for the round. Each Topic Card features 16 related words (e.g. countries, books, food, etc.)

Each player must now say a word relating to the Secret Word. The Chameleon can only make an educated guess based on the 16 words in front of them.
