Thicker Than Blood is a strategic, competitive Kenyan card game about sibling rivalry for inheritance, focusing on secrets, blackmail, and manipulation. It's designed for 3-6 players (ages 14+).
On a player's turn they will perform one action as their chosen sibling and one action as their Goon. Actions can involve gaining Secrets, Coins, shielding your own Secrets or Goon specific threats. Once you gain another player's Secrets you can expose them to cause the opponent to lose Face or Blackmail them to gain their Hooks that you can redeem to control their Actions or protect your own Face.
The aim of the game is to cause all other player's to lose their Face by using specific Actions, revealing their Secrets or calling "Family Meetings" to condemn them to lose Face. Last player standing wins.
