Where it came from
Belratti was published by Franckh-Kosmos in 2018 as a cooperative party game centered on the whimsical premise of art forgery. Designed by Michael Schacht, the game challenges players to act as either an artist or a museum curator, attempting to match artistic styles to specific themes while a hidden forger attempts to infiltrate the gallery with illicit paintings. The title is a playful reference to Wolfgang Beltracchi, a notorious real-world art forger who successfully deceived the international art market for decades.
The game is noted for its clever use of abstract illustration, which requires players to interpret vague imagery through the lens of specific, often humorous categories. Schacht, known for a wide variety of card and board games, opted for a minimalist aesthetic that emphasizes interpretation and social deduction. It was generally well-received by critics and gaming circles for its lighthearted approach to the complex history of art fraud, serving as a accessible entry point into the social deduction genre.
