description Inkognito Overview

Inkognito is a deduction board game designed by Alex Randolph and Leo Colovini and first published in 1988. Set during a Venetian carnival, it assigns players concealed identities, secret partners, and parts of a shared mission, which they uncover by moving agents around the board and exchanging limited information. Masks, ambiguous answers, and the Mister X figure reinforce its espionage theme, while success depends on identifying both an ally and the correct objective before rival agents do.
