About the game
Get ready for a dangerous toast with In Vino Morte, a bluffing and deduction game that fits in your pocket and in the palm of your hand! Picture this: an elegant banquet, bubbling wine glasses, and suddenly, the suspicion that someone is poisoning the guests. Is your wine a divine nectar or a fatal drink?

In In Vino Morte, each round is a new chance to be clever or to fall for someone else's trick. The dealer secretly distributes cards representing wine glasses – some filled with fine nectar, others with a treacherous poison. The big question is: do you trust your glass, or do you prefer to risk a swap with another player? With each round, the tension builds as you try to decipher who is serving what and who is trying to trick you.

It's a game that shines through its simplicity and direct interaction. It works very well with larger groups, turning any gathering into an event full of laughter and suspicious glances. With every sip (or not!), you feel the adrenaline of trying to guess others' intentions and hide your own. With super-fast games, you can play multiple rounds in a single evening, and its "print & play" nature makes access even easier. If you enjoy games that test your ability to read people and provide moments of pure fun and tension in just a few minutes, In Vino Morte is your next toast!
