Saboteur: 20th Anniversary Edition — How to Play
Video tutorial · playthroughs & reviews

Saboteur: 20th Anniversary Edition is a hidden-role card game where you're either digging for gold or secretly sabotaging the operation. Players work together to lay tunnel cards connecting the start to one of three goal cards—but hidden among the miners are saboteurs trying to block the path and steal the gold for themselves. The twist? You don't know who's on your team until the round ends, so every card played and every accusation carries weight.

On your turn, you'll play a tunnel card to extend the network, use an action card to help or hinder other players (breaking their tools, mapping the goals, or collapsing tunnels), or pass. Rounds are quick and tense, with miners racing to reach gold before the deck runs out while saboteurs quietly derail progress. After each round, roles are revealed and gold is divided—but only among the winning team.

This anniversary edition packs in the base game, the Saboteur 2 expansion, and a raft of mini-expansions and variants from years of World Championships. It scales brilliantly from 2 to 12 players, making it a perfect party game or gateway bluffing experience for families and casual groups. If you enjoy social deduction without heavy rules or love the chaos of hidden traitors, this is a modern classic.
