Hollywood 1947 - Board Game (ENG)

Description

It's 1947 and you're part of Hollywood's booming film industry. However, the suspicion is that there are communists in your small production studio who are putting "unpatriotic" messages, themes, props and text into your films! Can you find all the communists before your studio is closed down? Or are you yourself suspected and banned from the industry?

In the game, each player is secretly a patriot, communist or rising star. Each round, each player has a unique job to perform (such as Screenwriter, Director, Actor, Editor, etc.). These courses influence the type of film that is made that round, which cards the players hold and who receives special information. Players can choose to skip their assignment and instead re-roll two dice in the game. At the end of each round, players with a star on their die may add a card to the film.

The added cards are shuffled, one is removed and the rest are revealed. The team with the most symbols (including the symbols on that round's movie poster) wins the round! Indicate the winning team for the round by placing that team's matching film strip on the movie poster. The first team to win 4 rounds wins the game! The Rising Star plays both ways by trying to make the game last 7 rounds and have the 7th round be a draw.

Hollywood 1947 is a social deduction game. You should never show your cards or loyalties to anyone, but you can say whatever you want about the cards you put in a movie, or about your true loyalties. An open discussion about what cards you put in a movie is encouraged. However, if you are a communist or a rising star, lying will often help you achieve your goal because the majority of players will be patriots.

That's all. Most players get the hang of the game after just a few minutes. So let's make movies, but be careful who you trust!

Hollywood 1947 is the 5th standalone game in the Dark Cities series from Facade Games. Previous games in the series include Salem 1692, Tortuga 1667, Deadwood 1876 and Bristol 1350.
