You and your band of adventurers have stumbled onto treasure in a cave, but you’ve awoken a powerful enemy. You want the treasure all to yourself, and you’ll do anything to anyone that gets in the way, and that means other adventurers. In Misdirection, 2-8 players are pitted against each other with the sole goal of surviving. With a global enemy in play, players don't attack each other; instead players force other players to play cards they don't want to resulting in the enemy attacking them. —description from the designer
