About this event
Keep your friends close, and your fascists closer.
Secret Hitler is a hidden identity game set in 1930s Germany. Most players are liberals, a few are secretly fascists, and one of those fascists is Hitler. The fascists know each other from the first round. The liberals know nothing, and they outnumber the table.
Every round the group elects a President and a Chancellor, who between them enact one policy from the deck without showing the others what they discarded. Liberals win by enacting five liberal policies or by assassinating Hitler. Fascists win by enacting six fascist policies, or simply by getting Hitler elected Chancellor once three fascist policies are already on the table. That second condition is what makes the game: a vote that looks harmless early becomes the losing move later.
There is no board state to hide behind. The whole game is what people say, who they vote for, and what they claim was in the hand they just discarded.
