Product Description

Step into a world of shadowy spies and clandestine missions. From legendary designer Richard Garfield, spy net casts two to four players as spymasters running teams of covert agents. Working alone or as a team, players recruit agents from four different branches of espionage, then deploy those agents to complete vital undercover missions. Each mission is worth points, and at the end of the game the spy organization with the most points wins. Cleverly play your agents, pick the right moment to deploy your special agents, and adapt to each situation card to become a dominate force in the world of covert intelligence.

Great game!

Reviewed in the United States on April 15, 2020

Bought this game based on the reviews and Garfield's reputation, although I was afraid that my wife would find it too complicated. Absolutely not! It is a relatively simple game with a nice depth. Once you have played a couple of times, you have the basics and mechanics down and can move on to strategy. We have only played 3-player games and enjoy those a lot (every spymaster for himself).

Things I really enjoy about this game:

Artwork
Choices in what pile to pick from
Very quick and easy scoring at the end
The fact that you don't know who is really leading
The fact that the game can totally flip on the last hand (or not).
Speed and pacing. You don't have to set aside 90 mins to play, but you can easily end up playing the game for over an hour without even knowing it.

If you are looking for a $10 game and thinking about a Trouble or Sorry or something like that, try this one as an entry into the Euro-type game market. You will not be disappointed.

Cheap, Quick and Very Fun

Reviewed in the United States on August 17, 2019

Me and my friends love this game. The draw mechanic is very unique, the gameplay is very interesting, and the entire game is fun.

This game was so cheap, I figured I could just throw it away if it was boring. But it's a great small-box game. It's the first game that goes into my travel bag now.

Great little card game

Reviewed in the United States on April 27, 2019

Verified Purchase

Players take turns recruiting spies (drawing cards) to send on missions (playing cards). Spies are represented in four colors and have a number value assigned to them. Players can play spies to gain influence in order to deploy missions (higher number in a certain color wins influence). Influence can shift back and forth throughout the game. In a 3-4 player game, players may give cards to their teammates as part of deployment.

It's a simple to learn and teach game. It's a lot of fun to play and isn't too deep. I would classify it on the level of Skip-Bo when it comes to strategy and gameplay. It's a lot of fun at any player count (2-4). It also makes a great gift for gaming friends. I highly recommend it!

Solid card game for espionage fans

Reviewed in the United States on March 12, 2020

Verified Purchase

My boys are 9 and 10 and are generally obsessed with espionage thanks to Stuart Gibbs' Spy School Series.

We homeschool and play a ton of board and card games so my boys had no problem at all understanding the mechanics and strategy of the game.

The sgents and missions are categorized into Enforcement (Red, wrapons, some "elimination" of other agents), Tech (Blue), Counter Espionage/Infiltration (Green), and Disguises (Yellow). There are missions that are sort of Wild as they can be accomplished by any type of agent (Purple), and a some missions that could be accomplished by 1 of 2 types of agents depending on the player's choice.

Players build up their espionage teams to complete missions. Occasionally, there are oppression to damage the other player's agents.

Overall a solid little game that will likely stay in our game cabinet forever with occasional play.

Nice game

Reviewed in the United States on May 4, 2018

Verified Purchase

This a middle of the road, good filler game. It has some cards that changes up the game and cause momentum to shift from one player to another. Nice illustrations, good quality cards, fun to play and a clear rule sheet. Takes minutes to teach it to somebody new to the game. Nothing spectacular, but I gave five stars because I had no negatives to complain about.

Paid under five dollars. I would buy it again but no more than twelve dollars.

An interesting and very fun take on card drafting with the Winston-style drafting mechanic

Reviewed in the United States on January 20, 2018

Verified Purchase

An interesting and very fun take on card drafting with the Winston-style drafting mechanic. I absolutely love everything Richard Garfield designs as he continues to boil down popular game mechanics that interest him to their very essence in order to make them more accessible and enjoyable for the casual and family gamer. I believe he creates the best gateway games currently on the market, which is ironic since he got his start by creating very complex card games (i.e. Magic and Netrunner). Also, check out his other recent releases, Bunny Kingdom and Hive Mind, which are also wonderful. FYI, the artwork in this game is incredible!

Fun and replayable

Reviewed in the United States on July 11, 2019

Verified Purchase

I picked this up because it was on massive discount and as a former MTG player I was curious about a Garfield created stand alone game. It turned out to be a hit with my friends we have played it every time we gamed since. The drafting aspect makes for plenty of challenges and tough decisions and there seem to be plenty of strategies you can employ. The art is good replay is high. We have played it 4 players and 3 players and they both play well.
