What is Insider about?
Insider is a party game that blends the social deduction of Werewolf with the guessing game mechanics of 20 Questions. Players are assigned secret roles: one is the Master, one is the Insider, and the rest are common players. The Master chooses a secret word from a deck, and the Insider secretly learns the word as well. The players then ask the Master yes/no questions to guess the word before time runs out. After the word is guessed, players must deduce who the Insider is, based on who seemed to guide the group toward the correct answer.
