Accuse and defend your fellow townsfolk as you hunt down the witches of Salem. Act fast, before conspiracy turns you against your own.

The year is 1692, and it is a perilous time to live in the town of Salem, Massachusetts. One wrong step, or one misplaced accusation, and you could be the next witch to hang. "Salem" takes players into this perilous world and lets them re-live the tension, politics, and religious extremism that still has people talking about it 300 years later.

Salem 1692 is packaged in a faux book box that closes magnetically. The game, disguised as a worn out leather book, can easily hide on your bookshelf and masquerade as an antique.

Players can play as prominent villagers from the old Salem town, and even read their bios in the instruction manual. The servant girl Mary Warren, pastor Samuel Parris, farmer John Proctor, storyteller Tituba, and beggar Sarah Good are some of the 12 characters featured in the game.

Players, each acting as one of these unique characters, are given 3-5 Tryal cards (depending on the number of players). These Tryal cards reveal the true identity of each player, "Witch" or "Not a Witch."

During gameplay, players gather cards that they use to accuse, or defend, other players. Deciding who to trust is key to survival, since you can never play a card on yourself. When you suspect someone to be a witch, you can begin accusing them with red accusation cards. When enough accusations have been placed on one of the players, the player who lays the final accusation chooses one of that player's Tryal cards to reveal. Once all "Witch" Tryal cards have been found, the villagers of Salem win.

Players can also use green and blue cards such as "Alibi", "Stocks", "Matchmaker", "Asylum", and "Scapegoat" to help or hurt their allies or enemies.

As players draw cards, they will eventually draw black cards that take immediate effect. One black card, "Night", forces all players to close their eyes while the Witches choose someone to eliminate, the Constable chooses someone to potentially save, and the Spy chooses a Tryal card to look at. The other black card, "Conspiracy," forces all players to take a face-down Tryal card from the player to their left. Killing witches quickly is essential, otherwise "Conspiracy" may soon have the whole town turned evil.

Before long, accusations will be flying, and screams of "She's a WITCH!" will wake the neighbours. Will you be the hero who purges your town of witches, or will you be wrongly accused and hung for witchcraft? Or perhaps you will be a witch yourself, escape conviction, and bring Salem to the ground.

    Ages 12+ | Players 14-12 | Playtime 25-35 min

    At The Collectivist, we're stoked you're considering a pre-order with us. We aim to make your experience as smooth as possible, offering you the chance to pre-order select, exclusive items before everyone else. Secure your spot and relax, knowing you're ahead of the curve.

    Before you hit that 'Pre-order' button, take a moment to familiarise yourself with our pre-order policy terms and conditions.

    Here's the lowdown:
    • Estimated Time of Arrival (ETA): ETAs can be found on each product's description page. However, delays may occur due to publisher/creator delays or shipping issues from our suppliers. Rest assured, we'll keep you in the loop with updates.
    • Mixed Orders: If you've ordered both pre-order and in-stock items, we will hold the entire order until everything is available. Should you wish to receive your in-stock items sooner, we can offer split shipping which would be for an additional fee. This is most likely our $10 flat fee but we will confirm this with you at the time of your request.
    • Cancellations: If you find you need to cancel, you can do so without a fee within 14 days of the product's release date. Just give us a shout as soon as you can. Pre-order cancellations will not be accepted less than 14 days from product release.
    • High-Demand TCG Products: The popularity of some items means we receive allocation information about six weeks before release. Should pre-orders exceed our allocation, we'll prioritise based on pre-order date - first in, first served. Any affected customers will be notified and offered a store credit or full refund.
    • Allocation and Release Updates: If there are any changes to our allocation, release dates or shipping updates that impact your pre-order, every effort will be made to keep you updated.
