Discussion Phase:

Players can talk openly in the main meeting room for up to 90 seconds (or less if everyone agrees they are done talking)

Players can tell the truth or lie about whatever they want

Decision Phase:
-
You will be separated into breakout rooms and given a short amount of time to think.

Each player privately decides whether to "Cooperate" or "Defect".

Gordon will join your breakout room to collect your answer. He will not reveal it to anyone.

Treasure Phase:

Once everyone has made their decision, Gordon will distribute the treasures.

Players will learn what each player chose, but not who each player is (unless they can figure it out)
