Kemomimi Panic (2010)

About this game

The players are citizens threatened by the vicious thief Crescent Moon. Through talking, bluffing and special abilities, you must find out which of them is the culprit. Will Crescent Moon manage to steal everyone's treasures before she is unmasked? Kemomimi Panic is a conversation-based deduction game in which all players take the role of a beast-eared human, but the master thief Crescent Moon lurks among them, aiming to steal every player's treasure before the civilians can reveal her.

Does it fit your group?

• Group size. Works with 4 to 8.
• Rules load. At 1.5/5 this is a light game — explain it in a few minutes, good for a table that has not played much.
• Age. The publisher suggests 16 and up. That rates the rules rather than the artwork, so judge the box yourself for younger players.
