1
00:00:03,000 --> 00:00:09,000
The crew members of passenger airplane KL-886 are in shock.

2
00:00:10,000 --> 00:00:13,000
Because the captain suddenly died.

3
00:00:14,000 --> 00:00:17,000
Poissoned, killed or just a heart attack?

4
00:00:18,000 --> 00:00:22,000
The crew members distrust each other.

5
00:00:22,000 --> 00:00:25,000
One thing is certain, the crew is infiltrated.

5
00:00:26,000 --> 00:00:29,000
That's the start situation in Mayday!Mayday!.

6
00:00:30,000 --> 00:00:33,000
The new game by Corné van Moorsel

7
00:00:34,000 --> 00:00:38,000
in the Spieleschmiede. Here I have it as prototype.

8
00:00:40,000 --> 00:00:44,000
The remaining crew members try to get the situation under controle,

9
00:00:44,000 --> 00:00:46,000
to safe the plane.

10
00:00:47,000 --> 00:00:49,000
Therefore a new captain is needed,

11
00:00:50,000 --> 00:00:52,000
and trustworthy crew members.

12
00:00:52,000 --> 00:00:55,000
But who can you trust?

13
00:00:55,000 --> 00:01:01,000
The identity of the crew members is determined by Identity cards.

14
00:01:02,000 --> 00:01:05,000
Thereof each player has an Infiltrator card,

15
00:01:06,000 --> 00:01:08,000
an Honest crew card,

16
00:01:08,000 --> 00:01:11,000
and a third, secret card,

17
00:01:12,000 --> 00:01:17,000
which determines your identity and is unknown by other players.

18
00:01:18,000 --> 00:01:21,000
In a game with 5 players for example

19
00:01:22,000 --> 00:01:27,000
there are 2 Infiltrators. The others are Honest crew members.

20
00:01:28,000 --> 00:01:32,000
During the game you try to find out

21
00:01:32,000 --> 00:01:38,000
who you want to make the captain and who can get cockpit entrance too.

22
00:01:38,000 --> 00:01:40,000
That works in 2 phases.

23
00:01:40,000 --> 00:01:48,000
In the first phase you collect information from your neighbour players,

24
00:01:49,000 --> 00:01:53,000
by looking at their nearest cards.

25
00:01:54,000 --> 00:01:56,000
The card type you see,

26
00:01:56,000 --> 00:01:59,000
Honest crew or Infiltrator,

27
00:02:00,000 --> 00:02:05,000
you tell to the other players by placing your Knowledge marker.

28
00:02:06,000 --> 00:02:13,000
This way players learn more and more about the possible identity of other players.

29
00:02:13,000 --> 00:02:16,000
But Infiltrators can lie.

30
00:02:16,000 --> 00:02:21,000
They should lie at the right moments, to mislead the other players.

31
00:02:21,000 --> 00:02:25,000
Because the Infiltrators want to be in the final crew too,

32
00:02:25,000 --> 00:02:27,000
by becoming the captain,

33
00:02:27,000 --> 00:02:33,000
or otherwise by getting cockpit entrance to take control.

34
00:02:34,000 --> 00:02:39,000
In the second phase the crew gets reduced

35
00:02:39,000 --> 00:02:43,000
to the most trusted crew members.

36
00:02:44,000 --> 00:02:47,000
You defend or attack other crew members,

37
00:02:48,000 --> 00:02:52,000
during discussions about possible theories,

38
00:02:52,000 --> 00:03:00,000
to reduce first to 3, then to 2 and then to 1 crew member who gets trusted.

39
00:03:01,000 --> 00:03:04,000
That crew member is the new captain.

40
00:03:05,000 --> 00:03:08,000
Is he Infiltrator, then the plane is lost,

41
00:03:08,000 --> 00:03:14,000
the Infiltrators win and end the game.

42
00:03:15,000 --> 00:03:18,000
In the other case an extra phase starts,

43
00:03:18,000 --> 00:03:21,000
in which cockpit entrance cards

44
00:03:21,000 --> 00:03:25,000
get allocated in a comparable way.

45
00:03:26,000 --> 00:03:29,000
With the same risk: When an Infiltrator gets cockpit entrance,

46
00:03:29,000 --> 00:03:33,000
the game is over and the Infiltrators win.

47
00:03:33,000 --> 00:03:39,000
But when only Honest crew members get into the cockpit, then the plane is save.

48
00:03:41,000 --> 00:03:45,000
Mayday!Mayday! is a communicative deduction logics game,

49
00:03:45,000 --> 00:03:50,000
in which you must distinguish lies from truths.

50
00:03:50,000 --> 00:03:53,000
Which is fun, brings the players in action,

51
00:03:54,000 --> 00:03:56,000
and is exciting too.

52
00:03:57,000 --> 00:04:00,000
Mayday!Mayday! you can well play intuitive,

53
00:04:00,000 --> 00:04:07,000
but is as much fun when you try to reach your goal by planning and tactics.

54
00:04:07,000 --> 00:04:10,000
Experienced stewardesses and stewards

55
00:04:10,000 --> 00:04:15,000
can use the variation rules of the Power cards. 

56
00:04:15,000 --> 00:04:21,000
With these you can for example influence the communication in the game.

57
00:04:22,000 --> 00:04:26,000
So check-in, support this project in the Spieleschmiede,

58
00:04:26,000 --> 00:04:29,000
to start the adventure!
