Newspeak is a team-based game of code breaking and social deduction, set in a near-future dystopia. Playing as Mods and Dissidents, three to six players will give clues and break codes in an attempt to stay one step ahead of each other and determine the future of society. Your country, 2029. The population lives in an augmented-reality bubble, policed by the Modnet corporation and their network of citizen Moderators, and shielded from the crumbling dystopia around them by rose-coloured filters. Angry at Modnet’s power and the true state of the nation, the Dissidents aim to hack the augmented-reality technology and inspire a revolution. The Dissidents use creative, coded clues in conversation to communicate the target hacking Locations to each other, without giving them away to the Moderators. Meanwhile, Mods are always listening, using their intuition and code database to foil the Dissidents’ plans and catch them in the Hack. Each team must try to stay one step ahead of the other and save the future of the nation… as they see it. The deluxe edition of the NewSpeak core game includes the Rated and Sabotage expansions, as well as featuring a foiled effect on the cover. In the Rated Expansion, navigate the precarious world of social ratings with Dissident Player ratings and Location ratings, adding another element to the code-breaking challenge. Don’t forget - keep your rating high! In the Sabotage Expansion, expand your Dissident team to incorporate up to 8 players. While your Dissident team may be larger, there may be traitors amongst you - seeking to secretly communicate with the Moderators to undermine your revolutionary efforts. PLEASE NOTE: Location #9 (The Neighbourhood) is a misprint and has the Moderator image on both sides. Please refer to the text on the bottom of the card, which correctly indicates the Moderator side and the Dissident side. If you would like a replacement card, contact Inside the Box Game Studio with proof of purchase.
