Table feel
Pretense has a high level of direct confrontation and strategic depth in confrontation. Players need to frequently pay attention to and react to each other's strategies. However, the game does not emphasize cooperation as much.

Overview
It's board game night! Players are dealt roles and have the entire night to complete their secret objective. By the end of the night, the truth will come out. Pretense is a game night social metagame, essentially a game that you play DURING other games. You have a secret role and a secret objective, and if you accomplish it, you gain a point AND you steal someone's role. With that role you can try to gain more points and more roles. The game plays from 2-12 and is great on a good-sized game night with about 5-6 people.
