By Order of the King is an upcoming medieval social deduction game. After an attempted mutiny, the King has tasked the executioner with removing the heads of his entire court! Players attempt to survive while the executioner tries to deduce who to execute. The mutineers have forged pardons and distributed them among the prisoners. If the executioner kills a pardoned player, it'll be the executioner's head next to roll. While the Saboteurs try to sabotage the executions, Loyalists try to help the executioner avoid disaster (while saving their own heads of course)! Unlike other social deduction games, there's no "innocent" role or "bad guy" role. Everyone's out for themselves trying to trick the executioner, save their skin, and fulfill their secret role objectives.
The game will be crowdfunded on Kickstarter.com.
