About the Game

Team up to conquer dungeons! Seize treasures! Don't forget your identity! Beware of assassinations from your partners!

In Instances Workers, four players are thrown into the depths of a “Instances Project”, where trust is fragile and betrayal is always one card away.

Survival demands both cooperation and cunning—sometimes you must rely on your teammates, and sometimes you must strike them down.

  • Unique Roles: The Prince, The Loyalist, The Illegitimate Heir, The Avenger—each with distinct win conditions.

  • Hidden & Public Identities: Some roles are revealed, others stay secret, creating constant tension between trust and suspicion.

  • Co-op & Betrayal: Decide who leads the dungeon, who joins the team, and when to stab someone in the back.

  • Multiple Paths to Victory: Win as a team, rise alone, or achieve revenge—every match plays out differently.

  • Online Board Game: Designed for 4 players, delivering an intense and interactive experience.

In the “Instances Project”, there are no permanent allies—only opportunists.

Will you be the one who walks out victorious?
