Le Clan de la Muette is a board game of secret actions, atmosphere and bluffing in a fantasized 19th century, populated by anthropomorphic gangsters Members of the famous Mute Clan, you will have to collect enough money by the end of the game to pay your dues to the Silent Sisters. Failure would mean the end of the Clan, honoring your debt will ensure you a collective victory, and whoever has known how to set aside the most money for their own account will also win an individual victory At each turn choose a different lieutenant and play his powers day or night, the day you work for the Clan. At night you indulge in selfish and shameful acts, but be careful not to fall on someone smarter than you! —description from the designer
