Spy alley game directions

There is one space on the board, the Spy Eliminator space, that you can guess for free the identity of any player in Spy Alley. If you guess correctly those players are out of the game but there is not a penalty for guessing wrong. I am not going to explain all of the board spaces, however, you should check out the information on them in the instructions.

I do want to mention that if you get to draw a Free Gift card you get the item on that card and then put the card back to the bottom of the deck. It stays face up in front of you. There are only 4 in the game. Move cards also stay face up in front of you and can be used instead of rolling the die. Once used it goes to the deck. We adjusted this and have a discard pile since we prefer to shuffle cards to be fair. Important note: When you are passing Spy Alley on the board you can choose to go into the alley or continue past it.

You can also win if you are the only player left after all other players are eliminated. We have had both happen but it is unclear if there is more of a chance for one or the other yet. However, I think in our case last man standing is going to be the more often deciding factor for a winner.

The rules have a 2 player variation which is awesome. I love when games include other variations for play as it makes the game more interesting. In this case the game is played the same but each person starts with 2 Spy ID Cards! If you guess incorrectly you can choose which ID to give up which still goes to the other player.

Also you only have to make it to ONE of your embassies to win! There is a separate set of instructions that tells you how to be a better spy. I love this! They give you tips on how to throw other players off and sneakier!

They do stress to have fun which it is to pretend to be a spy! They also suggest maybe dressing up and using accents and trying to think like a spy would! We want to try this but would need to invest in some props. We are considering a Spy game night! Costumes, accents and spy games! Theme game nights! Hrmm I see a tradition brewing! Spy Alley Partners is a great company.

They include a sheet that encourages you to check your game and if you are missing any pieces to contact them via phone, fax or email and they will replace the missing pieces. They even have a toll free number! Spy Alley is a great game for game nights and family game nights and especially if you ever have a Spy them game night, party or mystery dinner! We plan on hosting one of these soon! In the mean time we will keep adding our amusement and enjoyment of playing for now.

Although when playing with accent we have to not always play with the accent of our actual country…that might give it away! Show us your spy disguise! MyGeeklings Spy Alley.
