This game is Japanese but is language-independent and English rules are provided as PDF's if they are not within the box.

You are a minor angel on the verge of falling from grace. To cancel your descent into damnation, you must claim how much protection you’ve received from the archangels! Heaven runs on a presumption of goodness — if you cast doubt on someone else's claims, you might just turn the heavens upside down! But, since you're already scum about to fall, you’ll probably lie without hesitation. Angelion is a trick-taking game where cards are played face-down and players must declare their number and suit — but lying is allowed. Each turn, players follow the declared suit (truthfully or not) and can challenge suspicious claims by calling Doubt. Correct Doubts steal points; wrong Doubts lose them. If no Doubt is called, the highest declared number wins the trick; if a Doubt occurs, the second-lowest number wins instead. With hidden cards, strategic lies, and custom wooden tokens for declarations, Angelion is a tense battle of bluffing, timing, and knowing when to trust — or betray.
