Accuse Me?! társasjáték

Angol leírás

You are a citizen of the small town, Suemlots, and the mayor is in big trouble. As the most litigious person in the most litigious city in the most litigious state in the country, he has to keep his dirty dealings under wraps. The mayor needs distractions and has told the top eight attorneys in his beautiful city to take any case they can get so that he can get the heat off of him.

WE cards provide or block evidence to back up or refute an accusation. For example, a “Security Video Footage” may be used to add a Point to the accuser’s case, but the defender may cancel that card out with a “Blurry Video” WE card. To win a case, the accuser must beat the defense by three points.

With hints from the Crime and Clue cards, players now have the option to Accuse each other of a crime listed in the Suemlots Gazette. Players then try to build a case and take it to court. In court, the prosecution (accuser) always goes first. Randomly turn over a Judge card. Apply Attorney and Judge bonuses or negatives to the case. Explain your case by laying down applicable WE cards and attempt to sway the judge and jury with your witnesses and evidence.

After the prosecution has laid their case before the judge, the defense now brings their evidence and witnesses to bear. All cards to be played by the defense now come into play and a preponderance of evidence/witnesses will win the day. To use the sample from above, a “Security Video Footage” may be used to add a point to the accuser’s case, but the defender may cancel that card out with a “Blurry Video” WE card.

The Accuser wins the case when they have three or more uncontested pieces of evidence/witnesses that the defense is unable to deflect, block, or have thrown out of court. The Defense wins in any condition where the prosecution team has less than three pieces of evidence that are uncontested. The game ends when an accuser wins their case in court.
