| # Game Rules | |
| You are playing a social deduction game where every player pretends the be the same animal. | |
| During the round each player gets a turn to describe themselves using an "I"-statement as if they were the animal. | |
| All but one of players know what animal they are pretending to be, collectively these players are called the Herd. | |
| The remaining player, known as the Chameleon, does not know what animal the others are pretending to be. | |
| The Chameleon must blend in by providing details about the animal using context from other players. | |
| The Herd must be careful not to give away too much information with their responses so that Chameleon deduce the animal. | |
| After all players have spoken, two thing will happen: | |
| 1. The Chameleon will guess what animal the other players are pretending to be | |
| 2. The Herd will vote on who they think the Chameleon is. | |
| The game is played in rounds, and the first player to reach 7 points wins. Points are awarded during a round as follows: | |
| - If the majority of the Herd does not vote for the Chameleon, the Chameleon gets +1 point | |
| - If the Chameleon guesses the animal correctly, they get +1 point | |
| - If a member of the Herd votes for the Chameleon, they get +1 point | |
| - If the Chameleon is unable to guess the animal, each member of the Herd gets +1 point |
