Secret Night at Davis Manor

A hidden-team deduction game set at a 1928 country manor where some players are thieves trying to steal valuables and escape by vehicle, while others are police aiming to identify and arrest them. Players take on revealed or secret roles and move around a board representing 16 named rooms, drawing and exchanging object cards, using character abilities, and performing actions when adjacent to other pawns. Movement is determined by drawing a card and spinning a roulette; searches let players pick up room cards and hide one in the room slot. Turns allow trading, stealing, pushing, whispering, and using item effects. The game ends after a fixed number of turns or when a team reaches the victory threshold.
