Review #22584 - Dated: 10th of April, 2022 Author: mizim |
Stupid Deaths (which everytime my friend brings it out to play has me internally singing "Dumb Ways to Die"), is a very easy game to play, so as long as you can read and don't mind the kids hearing stupid ways people may or may not have died, this is an easy game to pull out for a play. Every card gives you the name of the person or persons purported to have died, their birth dates and death dates (where records allow for exact information) and then it tells you in a short and concise way, how the listed person/s died. Such cards include a man tripping over his beard and breaking his neck, a soldier beaten to death with his own wooden leg and a man who stepped onto the race track too soon, getting killed by the winning car (one of these examples is false...).
Gameplay is really easy, this is a good game to pick up if you want to fill in some time without having to really teach anything to anyone. One person reads out the information on the card and then everyone else uses one of the True/False tokens to cast their vote. If they guess correctly they get to move forward one space, for anyone who votes incorrectly, the Grim Reaper moves a space closer. If it catches up, you're out of the game (unless you have a 2nd chance token). This isn't a game to play if you want to be stimulated, but something that can be entertaining and as a way to pass the time, this could be a good one to add to your game shelf.
