Fiction: Banned Books

Fiction: Banned Books is a word game sequel that adds player powers and a new banned-books theme to Fiction’s deceptive deduction system.

Players work together to solve a secret five-letter word while one Lie-brarian feeds back clues with exactly one lie hidden in every response. This sequel keeps the fast, Wordle-inspired structure of the original game but adds new ability cards that let both sides bend the rules and create sharper mind games. The banned-books theme gives the word selection a distinct identity while the added powers make each round more flexible, interactive, and unpredictable.

Designed for 2–8 players, Fiction: Banned Books plays in about 20 minutes and is recommended for ages 10 and up. It is a great fit for groups that want a quick word game with teamwork, bluffing, and more ways to outthink the table. Available now at Boarding School Games—test every clue.
