Read the full game description
Raise Your Goblets is a party deduction game about a dangerously theatrical royal banquet. Each noble secretly adds wine, poison, or antidote to the goblets, peeks at uncertain contents, rotates the table, or swaps cups to redirect suspicion. When someone calls a toast, everyone receives one final action before drinking. Surviving, eliminating a target, and serving the most wine all score points, while asymmetric noble powers bend the rules and keep accusations lively across three rounds.
