How to play Survade
Survade is a browser-based survival discussion game. One player creates a room, everyone receives a character, and the group debates who deserves a place in safety when there is not enough room for all players.
What players are trying to do
#Your goal is to survive the vote by proving that your character is useful, trustworthy, or too risky to remove. The group compares professions, health, items, skills, fears, and dark secrets before choosing who stays in the game.
What the host controls
#The host creates the room, chooses the scenario, sets the player count, enables optional saboteur mode if the group wants hidden pressure, and starts each stage when everyone is ready.
Why the discussion matters
#The card does not speak for itself. A strong profession can lose support if the player cannot explain how it helps the group, while a suspicious secret can be defended when the player gives a practical survival argument.

Special powers
#Every player receives one special power with their character card. Some powers are best used during discussion, some can change a vote, and one works passively when another player tries to expose you.
Secretly check whether one living player is the saboteur. Only you see the answer, so you decide how openly to use that information.
Protect yourself by redirecting one vote cast against you to another eligible player.
Force one player to reveal every still-hidden card detail that belongs to the current game settings.
Privately look at two hidden details on another player's card without revealing them to the whole table.
Swap one chosen card detail between your character and another living player. The swapped detail is not automatically revealed.
Cast a vote that counts as two votes for this round, unless another effect changes the vote before the verdict.
Protect one player from being voted out this round. Current votes against that player are removed, and new votes cannot target them.
Blocks the first attempt to force-reveal your hidden information. It triggers automatically and is then spent.
Choose a player and a card detail; that player must reveal the chosen detail to everyone.
Push one player into revealing a random hidden detail and stop them from using an active power for the rest of the round.
After someone is eliminated in the current round, copy one chosen detail from that eliminated player's card to your own.
