ALIBI: BLOOD ON THE TARTAN
Welcome to the misty Scottish Highlands, where the honor of clans is stained with blood. Alibi: Blood on Tartan is more than just a board game, but a portal to a Victorian era steeped in mystery, whiskey, and betrayal. A dense investigative plot, inspired by the great classics of detective fiction, wrapped up in a deck of cards that will burn in your hands.
In this chapter of the acclaimed Alibi series, you'll find yourself embroiled in a brutal murder. The victim lies cold, and the suspects hide behind silence and half-truths. You and your team of detectives will have to unravel a web of seemingly unconnected clues, where every detail could be the key or a fatal red herring.
The atmosphere is palpable: the dark, refined design, with its midnight blue and deep cyan tones, immediately draws you into the crime scene. You're not just playing; you're interrogating reticent witnesses, analyzing flawed alibis, and trying to piece together a fragmented timeline before the killer gets away.
Perfect for an evening with friends or family, this title challenges your powers of deduction and communication. Are you ready to look beyond appearances and pierce the veil of silence that surrounds the castle? The truth is there, hidden within the folds of the tartan.

🎯 COME SI GIOCA
📦 CONTENUTO DELLA SCATOLA
THE SECRET OF THE HIGHLANDS
Technically, Alibi: Blood on Tartan stands out for its game engine based on information fragmentation. Inspired by the "Murder Party" system but condensed into an accessible pocket-sized format, the game forces players to piece together a narrative puzzle where no player has the complete picture.
The core mechanic revolves around the management of clue cards: some can be revealed to everyone, while others must remain secret and described only verbally. This creates a dynamic flow of gameplay that perfectly simulates the tension of a real interrogation, where precise language and active listening are as crucial as deductive logic.
"THE TRUTH IS A MOSAIC OF LIES."
