From BoardGameGeek

Have the craziest conversation of your life – and provide unforgettable moments to be ashamed with a lack of beat, disturbing behaviour and selected behaviour for coming off as the weird daddy joke-uncle. ABSURD SMALLTALK - Make extremely fun conversations with multiple conversation topics per round - at the same time! Score points through thoughtful listening and creative communication HIDDEN IDENTITY - Play with hidden roles and secret missions that you don't know at the beginning of the round. Even about your own role you first have to find out due to detective sense. COOPERATION OR BLUFF - If you have pulled the same conversation card, you play in the team and need to find each other. As Mimic Octopus you are about to lie and manipulate and that way secretly sneak into a team and steal points. Card game without plastic - all films are biodegradable. Board game with 110 cards for 4-8 people, from 12 years, playing time approx. 30 minutes. Can be combined with all Mimic Octopus editions.
