About the game
Your village has been overrun by savage werewolves, which are represented by the number on each of the cards that make up your village. To get rid of these fanged fiends faster than the neighboring villages, use your residents' special abilities and your powerful secret weapon: a silver fang. Call for a vote when you think you have the fewest werewolves, but be careful as everyone else gets one more turn to save their own village first. Silver Fang is a traditional card game with a werewolf twist! Everyone starts the game with five face-down cards, with each player being able to choose and see two of their cards. Cards are numbered 0-13, with the number showing how many werewolves the character on that card attracts, and each character (number) has a different special power. On a turn, you draw the top card of the deck or discard pile, then either discard it to use the power of the card (but only if it came from the deck), discard it without using the power (ditto), or replace one or more of your face-down cards with this card; you can replace multiple cards only if they bear the same number, and you must reveal the cards to prove this, being penalized if you're wrong. Silver Fang can be played as a standalone game or combined with other games in the Silver series by Bézier Games. Each version of the game has different card abilities and a different silver token ability. Silver Fang is unique because it includes team rules and cards that, while they work for individual player games, can be leveraged for team play. The Silver Fang token creates a personal discard pile that can only be accessed by the Fang owner, providing a place for them and their teammate to play cards that only the Fang owner can choose from. —description from the publisher
