Illuminati是一个经典的史蒂夫·杰克逊（I）世界统治的游戏。每个玩家都扮演一个秘密社会的角色，试图将卷发传播到世界各地的特殊兴趣小组。游戏由三张不同的卡片（照明卡，组卡和特殊事件卡）组成，和钱。在玩家轮到时，从包含组卡和特殊事件卡的甲板中抽出一张新卡。如果是一个特殊的事件，玩家反过来会保持卡并在需要时播放。如果是组合卡，则会与任何其他正面照片卡一起显示。然后玩家可以尝试接管任何组。这可以是表上的组或已由另一播放器控制的组。如果另一个玩家已经控制了这个组，那就更难了，而不是不可能。“＃10;接管一个团体有多困难取决于控制组的实力，组被接管，组的接近被接管到控制玩家的照明卡（如果有人已经控制它）和其他因素。一旦确定，攻击和防守球员都可以通过花费“大马克”来进一步修改赔率。一旦被接管，它必须被附加到玩家已经控制的卡结构上。如何将卡片相互连接的方式受到卡上的入站和出站箭头的限制，并且维护一个结构良好的群组树可能对成功至关重要。
每个玩家的获胜条件是不同，取决于玩家拥有什么样的照片。
第一版包含54张小黑白卡。

Illuminati is a classic Steve Jackson (I) game of world domination. Each player takes on the role of a secret society attempting to spread its tendrils into special interest groups throughout the world. The game consists of three different cards (illuminati cards, group cards, and special event cards) and money. During a player's turn, a new card is drawn from a deck containing both group cards and special event cards. If it is a special event, the player in turn keeps the card and plays it when desired. If it is a group card, it is turned up along with any other face-up cards. The player in turn may then attempt to take over any group. This can be either a group on the table or a group already controlled by another player. If another player already controls the group it is more difficult to take it over, but not impossible. How difficult it is to take over a group depends on the strength of the controlling group, the resistance of the group being taken over, the proximity of the group being taken over to the controlling player's illuminati card (if someone already controls it), and other factors. Once this is determined, both the attacking and defending player can modify the odds further by spending "megabucks". Once a group is taken over, it has to be attached to the card structure the player already controls. How cards can be attached to each other is limited by in- and outbound arrows on the cards, and maintaining a well-structured tree of groups can be vital to success. The winning condition for each player is different and depends on what illuminati card that player has. This first edition contains 54 small black and white cards.
