Hoax : a game of secret identities / by Bill Eberle, Ned Horn, Jack Kittredge, and Peter Olotka.
"A filthy rich industrialist has died, but only the most conniving member of the household will inherit his fortune. You are given a secret identity, but can claim to be any character in the game. Use a character's abilities to aid your schemes. Investigate the other players and learn their true identities. Then, eliminate your rivals one at a time by confronting them with your accusations. But be careful! Get caught in enough lies, and the other players can pin down your identity. Make a false accusation and you can be eliminated, or even hand victory to your opponent! Hoax is simple to play, but it is your opponents who are complicated!"--Container
