What this is
A wild west elimination dice game with secret teams. The Sheriff and deputies need to kill the outlaws, the outlaws win by killing the Sheriff, and the renegades want to be the last players alive in the game. At the start of the game, players each take a role card that secretly places them on a team: the Sheriff and deputies, outlaws, and renegades.
