Inspired by classics like The Resistance and Secret Hitler,
Secret Jesus is a social deduction game set in the final days of Jesus' life.
Will Jesus escape the crucifixion? Will the Apostles unmask Judas in time?
Or will the Romans strike at the heart of the resistance?

- Two teams, seven roles, four win conditions.
- There is no moderator — everybody plays.
- There is no elimination, making the game more entertaining for everybody at all times.
- Thanks to Revelations every game is unique, as they radically change strategies and
alliances.
- The information asymmetry is threefold: Romans are known to everyone from the beginning;
every Christian knows who Jesus is; nobody knows who Judas is.
- Many roles, many unique gameplays: For the Romans, Secret
Jesus plays like a logic puzzle. They watch how Chapters play out and piece by piece they try to
figure out who Jesus is. For the Apostles, the game is all about deception. They act like a cover team,
working to spot Judas and shield Jesus without revealing him.
