About the game
We all know that conspiracies are real. They are trying to clone Hitler, role-playing is actually devil worship and the Reptilian overlords are watching our every move! The problem is that for some reason people ignore these obvious facts. That has to change, and quickly before it's too late! Conspiracy! is a game for two to four players. During the game players reveal conspiracies, each of which grant the player some special power. Additionally, players can work to discredit the insane conspiracies of other players (what nut jobs!) by leaking stories to the tabloid press. Points are scored for the conspiracies left at the end of the round and those that are accepted possibly true by the public double in value. The game ends when a player crosses one hundred points. The highest score wins.

Questions and answers
Conspiracy! supports 2–4 players according to the catalogue. This range comes from the publisher’s listed player count, so the game can be set up for any group size within it. Some setups, rules and scoring details may still vary by player count, so check your edition’s rulebook for the exact configuration.
The listed playing time for Conspiracy! is 30–45 minutes. This is the publisher’s estimate for a full game. The actual duration depends on the group, the player count and familiarity with the rules: first sessions usually run longer, while experienced groups often finish faster. Setup and teaching time are not included in this estimate.
The catalogue lists Conspiracy! for ages 13 and up. This is the publisher’s recommendation and reflects reading demands, rule complexity and small components rather than theme alone. Younger players can often join with help from an adult, so check the age guidance on your edition and consider your group’s experience with board games.
Conspiracy! has a complexity rating of 2.0 out of 5 from BoardGameGeek players, which makes it a medium-light game. The rating reflects how much rules knowledge, planning and decision-making a typical game demands. Expect a longer first teach for heavier games, and use a preparation guide before game night.
