About the Game

Welcome to FaeKin. A fast-paced, beautifully twisted game of social deduction, where everyone can lie but no one has to.

With the balance between Summer and Winter shattered, it’s up to you to uncover who truly serves which court. In true Fae fashion, mischief is encouraged, deception is expected— but nothing is required. The choice to lie, mislead, or stay silent is entirely yours.

Duel your fellow Fae. Play cards face down. Peek. Bluff. Expose. Touch the Crown and Dagger to make a claim. Convince, deceive, or be deceived. But once your decision is cast - the truth will be revealed.

Crown the right Heir AND dagger the right enemy - and your Court claims victory. But choose one wrong and the rival Court wins everything.

Determine the fate of the court with 32 mystical Fae tarot cards, secret duels, dramatic reveals, and a race to uncover the truth. FaeKin is social deduction at its most elegant — and most dangerous. No two games are ever the same.
