WHAT THE NIGHT FEELS LIKE
FOR ONCE, IT'S GOOD TO BE BAD.
Titan Star: Uprising is a space opera murder mystery that flips the most classic trope of social deduction on its head. This time, the heroes are the ones hiding and the baddies are free to throw their weight around.
EMBRACE YOUR INNER TYRANT
Most of the table plays the Order, a grand evil empire. Dereliction of duty or failing to meet your KPI's of planetary conquest? That might be reason enough to be thrown out of the airlock.
FROM PAWN TO POWER PLAYER
Many players start as Conscripts with no ability at all. Then High Command comes calling, and the player everyone ignored five minutes ago holds the fate of the game in their hands.
IT WAS BLOODY ONE OF YOUSE
Double agents, sleeper cells and amnesiac test subjects mean dramatic double claims are part of the game. Somebody's lying. Possibly without even knowing it.
MEET THE COUNSELLORS
LEARN YOUR ROLE & LIE ABOUT IT
NEW RECRUIT
Conscript
"You begin the game with no ability, you may be promoted"
Sure climbing the corporate ladder might not be fun, but climbing the ranks of a tyrannical intergalactic empire? That's where it's at.
???
Test Subject
"You don't know your role/ team, You MUST pretend you do. You know the 2nd Test Subject."
An amnesiac desperately trying to blend in who knows a player on the other team but can't explain why.
REBEL
False Flag
"Begin the game by choosing a role from The Order, you gain their ability"
The ultimate bluff. Even in a double claim the False Flag has receipts and "proof" that they are who they say they are.
REBEL LEADER
Sleeper Cell
"The Sleeper Cell registers as a member of The Order to all checks until the 4th inquisition"
In Titan Star it's always worth double checking to see if that player you checked on night two is the same on night six
PROMOTION
Propagandist
"Each mission, learn if the Rebel Leader’s vote contributed to an execution today"
Whose hand is raised? And who's deflecting attention away from their fellow rebel scum? The Propagandist knows

WHAT OUR REBELS HAVE TO SAY
So complicated and so fun! The host was diplomatic and epically funny!
A great inner/outer galactic experience 🤙 thanks Michael 🤩

Such fun! I got to have a full drama moment and everybody loved it; the Drama Award circa 2002 sitting in my room vindicated. I thought I was prepared to be betrayed, I was not. I'm looking forward to joining again. Well done Mike, what a clever mind you have been blessed with.

The group night out (or in!) you’ve been looking for! Folklore is the perfect mix of storytelling, strategy, chaos and realising who out of your friend group is actually a really good liar!
Mike is such a charismatic and wildly entertaining storyteller and did a great job hosting this event.
We thoroughly enjoyed this and can’t wait to go back again, although we’ll be brushing up on how to look significantly less suspicious next time round.
Such a brilliant concept and a genuinely memorable night with friends. Highly recommend!

A Game Of Bold Faced Bluffs
Coming off the low trust information environment of Hollywood Masquerade, in creating Titan Star I wanted a game that emboldened players to lie through their teeth. A game that leans towards dramatic double claims over tight-lipped play. Characters like the False Flag, a deep-cover double agent, and the Smuggler, who steals abilities or learns roles that aren't in play encourages players to lie, and gives them a real basis for doing it well.
When I think about what I want from a social deduction game (lies, a good puzzle, compelling social interactions and tension that lasts until the final buzzer), I'm proud to say Titan Star delivers on all fronts.
Embrace Your Inner Tyrant
One of the benefits of building a system where the uninformed majority are the bad guys is the flavour it brings to game. I'll never forget a play test where one player, Brayden, nominated a fellow player like this:
"I'd like to be clear that I don't think Joe is a rebel, but he's been inefficient in running our mining operations recently, so I think we should kick him out of the airlock regardless."
The circle erupted in horrified laughter. That moment crystallised exactly what I wanted Titan Star to achieve: giving players permission to be deliciously, and safely part of an evil empire training, brainwashing and experimenting on Conscripts while they try to stop a rebellion.
