About the game
Shitty Choices, also known as Decisões de Merda, is the card game that turns a casual gathering into a lively debate. At the start of each round, a player draws a card that presents two outrageous or provocative options and reads it aloud to the group. Everyone then votes on which option they think will receive more votes. If the player who drew the card guesses correctly, they earn a point. The first player to reach three points wins the game. The mechanic is pure voting, with no hidden combos or trickery. The humor comes from the irony and the desire to see whether friends truly share the same wild ideas. It works well with groups ranging from five to thirty players, with playtime between 20 and 40 minutes, making it perfect for parties or casual get‑ups. Components are simple: a deck of cards, a point marker, and a short rule sheet. Though it’s a card game, there’s little strategy involved; the fun comes from the debate and the unexpected reactions. The adult rating is appropriate because the content can be a bit edgy. If you enjoy games that spark laughter and reveal your friends’ personalities, Shitty Choices might be the missing piece for your table. The premise is to test everyone’s courage when picking the most controversial option, while the vote decides who’s on board with the collective opinion. In short, the game is simple, quick, and guarantees moments of light‑heartedness—and sometimes chaos—among friends. Additionally, the deck features cards about everyday situations, absurd decisions, and even moral dilemmas, keeping variety throughout the rounds. Players can use the cards to spark discussions and perhaps discover something new about their companions. The design is minimalist, with simple illustrations and vibrant colors, facilitating quick reading. The rulebook is only three pages, making the learning curve almost instant. Finally, the game stands out for being highly portable and not requiring much space, allowing you to take it anywhere.
