Don't know if there are enough folk here with an interest in this game to answer a rules question.
When a player moves a pawn onto a location containing other pawns, the player can challange another player. The challenged player must show the challenging player his colour card (which will confirm if his pawn is one of those at that location), and if he is there, he must then show his character card to the challenging player.
Now here is the question - all cards are shown only to the challenging player, and the other players cannot be told the result. However, the act of showing a second card indicates that the challenged player is one of the pawns there - if there is only one other pawn, they will all know his specific colour, even without seeing the card.
When we first played this game, we went through convoluted ways of preventing this - passing the challenger the colour card, and then passing him either the character card or colour card again, so that every challenge involved two card exchanges, so no inference can be drawn by other players. Recently, I have been thinking of making or getting a second set of cards to be made into "blanks", so they could be used as dummy cards.
However, it has just occurred to me that it might be part of the intended rules that other players can draw conclusions from seeing a second card passed across.
What do folk think? Or am I putting too much unwarranted thought into this game?

I was under the assumption that people can deduce things. This way, they know that the player is one of the colours, but they still don't know the character.
I think then part of the game is a werewolf style accusation game where you try to convince other people that the player is/isn't a vampire.
