About the game
Congratulations, you’ve just qualified for the World Championship of Russian Roulette! Yep, that’s right: a game where you and your friends bet on how many times you can pull the trigger without getting shot. Each round is a mix of bluffing, pressure, and luck, with everyone playing simultaneously — no waiting for turns. You’re the captain of a team and need to rack up 15 victory points or be the last one with brains intact. Earn points by betting on how many rounds you’ll survive, but watch out: if you lose a teammate, you get an action card that can turn the tide. And there’s more: you can cheat by pocketing the bullet, but if you’re caught, the penalty will blow your mind (if there’s anything left to blow).
