About the Game
Welcome to Sophistry, a strategic 1v1 card game of philosophical debate set in the ancient Agora. Play as a famous philosopher, synergize your Arguments, and make Objections to your opponent’s Arguments. In Sophistry, Subject Icons on the Discussion cards set the winning condition at the start of the game. Collect the required Subject Icons on your table before your opponent to win... but watch the Popularity track, an alternative winning condition.
Spend Focus to play new Argument cards from the Common Knowledge Pool. Choose Arguments that match the current Discussion’s Subjects to score points, but be careful, some of them will cost you Popularity! Place hidden Objection tokens on top of the cards in the pool to guess your opponent’s next Argument. If your opponent takes an Argument with your Objection token, flip it, and if they fall onto your trap, play powerful Objection cards, adding any Subject of your choice to your table. Change Subjects, disrupt the table, and manipulate the winning conditions. Stay Focused! Argue, object, and adapt!
Everything is valid, in the game of Sophistry
