Gossip

GOSSIP is a game about spreading and quashing rumors at the work place. Players either take on the role of coworkers spreading gossip or coworkers trying to identify the gossip-spreaders before office morale decreases irreparably. The gossip-spreaders - known as gossips - win the game by lowering office morale; the friendlies win the game by correctly identifying all of the gossips. 

In addition to playing as either a secret gossip or friendly, players also play as one of five positions in the social fabric of their glorious corporation including: the office flirt, the prankster, the networker, the slacker, or the manager. Each position has unique abilities (except the manager).

Players take turns visiting differet parts of their office - from the water cooler to HR - in an attempt to unearth the gossips (or to remain earthed, if you are a gossip, to secretly lower company morale). Players may go to their cubicles to get gossip; the water cooler to spread gossip; HR to accuse someone of spreading gossip; or their boss’s office to hide from accusations.
