Description

"Monkey Wrench":

Is a social game requiring at least 7 people to play, but can handle up to 33 players. The concept of the game is rather simple. The company you work for has suddenly been having problems with all of its production machines being sabotaged. One of your fellow employees, (players) has been tampering with the machines, "After Hours" (The Monkey Wrench card). The problem is, no one seems to knows who it is, because every employee seems to have an alibi, in the form of an undisclosed "After hours" card.

There for, the Board of Directors, (The Narrator's), have decided that one employee will be fired during each "Day Shift" phase via mutual Employee vote. This will continue each subsequent round until the culprit(s) has been removed from the company (The game). To help facilitate this, a member of local law enforcement (Undercover Cop) and the FBI are also working in secret "After hours", and have also become employed by the company, and are now masquerading as a regular employees to help weed out the real problem person(s).

However, The Monkey Wrench team, has an edge: Once per "After hours" phase, the group of Monkey Wrench players can secretly convert one other Employee towards their goal, and convert them into a fellow Monkey Wrench, so long as they do not select member of Law enforcement by accident. However, both the Police Officer, and the FBI, as well as many others, can also once per "After hours" phase secretly “Fire” or "Arrest" one person they suspect to be the dangerous employee; thereby removing them from game the following "Day Shift" phase, and hopefully thwarting their dastardly goals.

So its up to you fellow employee…

Will you side with the Monkey Wrench and take down the company?

Will you help the Corporate Security to weed out the problem person?

Or... were you secretly the Monkey Wrench, all along?
