100 Ways to Die
3–7 players · 45 min · 10+
100 Ways to Die is a lighthearted game of tall tales.
During the game, Grim needs to collect his tally of souls and yours is up for grabs! However, you should also know that Grim is a ‘friendly’ reaper and has decided to give you the choice of whose he should take today. Play your strongest defence card to win the group over and save your soul.
At the start of each round, Grim will offer you a new, unfortunate, even comical way to lose your soul. Your fate will be decided once all players have revealed their defence card and told their stories. After the count of 3 and in unison, all players must point to the player they believe has given the most unlikely story. It’s your story so get creative.
The loser (most votes) must then discard one of their life souls and draw back up to 3 cards. Play then continues clockwise. When a player has lost all 3 of their souls they are technically out, but may remain in the game as a ‘Spiritual Advisor’ until only 1 player has at least one soul remaining.
The winner is the player with the remaining soul.
