About

Subterfuge is played on a 9x9 grid with Geneva in the center and home cities for players in the corners. The remaining squares are numbered. Each player has a copy of the sheet. On a turn a player either bribes an agent (by writing an amount in their square and deducting it from their total) or moves the secret papers. The papers start in Geneva and move to adjacent agents. A move may be challenged by players with bribes on the agent relinquishing control of the papers; there is a sort of bidding procedure to resolve challenges without revealing too much information. The object of the game is to move the papers to your home city.
