Overview
What ABG knows about this game
Shadow Raiders is a survival board game in which three groups of characters — Shadows, Raiders and Citizens struggle against each other to survive. You belong to one of these groups and must conceal your identity from others since you don't know whom you can trust—at least not initially. Over time, though, someone might decipher who you are through your actions or through Hermit cards, or you might even reveal yourself to use your special ability. The key to victory is to identify your allies and enemies early because once your identity is revealed, your enemies will attack with impunity using their special abilities. This ancient battle comes to a head when someone completes their win condition. It is possible to be victorious even in death!
