University Games Stupid Deaths Game

Product Information

The Extra Life Token will allow the player to move their pawn one space in front of the Grim Reaper, barely cheating death. If they are touched again, they are out for the remainder of the game. Why rest in peace when you could play in stitches? This game will have you laughing so hard that you’ll be coffin and spluttering, and you’ll be dying for another round. So, if your passed game nights were just dead weight, it��s time to lift your spirits! Get your Stupid Deaths game today! It’s tomb much fun… Furthermore, the game relies heavily on 50/50 guess work. There is no skill or way to work out which death is true or false. For me, this made the game a bit boring as you couldn’t strategise your way to victory. Nevertheless, the simplicity did make it easy to play with casual or non-gamers.

After the reader is finished, all other players decide if it's a True (and real) Stupid Death or a False (made up) Stupid Death by placing one of their Voting Cards face down in front of them. Stupid Deaths, published by University Games, is a 2-6 player party game for ages 12+. Housed in a tombstone box, with the slogan frightfully funny, it appeals to those with a macabre sense of humour. Ready To Reap OBJECT OF STUPID DEATHS: The objective of Stupid Deaths is to either be the last player remaining, or the first player to reach the red space. NUMBER OF PLAYERS: 2 to 6 players MATERIALS: Instructions, a Game Board, Six Extra Life Tokens, Twelve Voting Cards, One Grim Reaper, Six Playing Pieces, Three Hundred Stupid Death Cards TYPE OF GAME: Party Game AUDIENCE: 12+

Where can you buy it?

Stupid Deaths is a funny game as you won’t believe how some people die. There’s plenty of teachable moments to explain to your kids how seemingly stupid actions can have grave consequences (pun totally intended). Having said that, some families might be appalled by the subject of this game and that’s understandable. Each to their own. Families best know the games that are best suited for their kids. If they are correct players get to move one space forward, and if they are incorrect the Grim Reaper moves one space forward per wrong answer. Gameplay is continued on like this alternating players each round so that everyone gets a chance to read a card.

While players are trying to work out if someone died from holding their bladder too long, the Grim Reaper moves closer. If the Grim Reaper catches up to a player, that player will lose their extra life token and move one space forward. If the Grim Reaper passes the same player again, they are eliminated from the game. Players must guess their way to the finish line whilst being chased by death. In the tombstone shaped box, you will find a board game, 300 stupid death cards, 6 playing pieces, a Grim Reaper, 12 true or false voting cards, 6 extra life tokens and the instructions.

Some people will of course be much more particular about the brands they will use. Whilst others aren’t interested in the brand and are more interested in the overall quality or price of the product itself. Thankfully Stupid Deaths is a brand that many customers have grown to love over the years and is very popular for items in the Board games category.The object of the game is simple, players must outrun the Grim Reaper. A player can win by being the first to reach the finish line or by being the last remaining player in the game. The reader will announce the correct answer to the group. Each player with the correct answer will move their pawn one space closer to home. Players with incorrect answers will not touch their pawn, instead, they will move the Grim Reaper one space closer to their pawn. Some of the cards detail real life deaths, whereas others are made up. After the reader has read out the card, other players must guess if the death is true or false. Players who guessed correctly move one space forward and players who did not stay put. If all players guess incorrectly, the reader gets to move forward instead. If the Grim Reaper lands on the same space or passes a pawn, the player has officially experienced the touch of death! If the player still has a Extra Life Token available, they may use it at this point to save themselves. If an Extra Life Token is used, it is then discarded and is unable to be used again for the remainder of the game. Players who guess correctly move one space. If there are players who voted incorrectly, the Grim Reaper moves one space for each incorrect answer. If during the game, the Grim Reaper catches up with a player, they are now “touched by death” and are out of the game unless they have an Extra Life token that they play. The first person to reach the Red space on the board or who is the last player left is the winner.

The concept of Stupid Deaths is dead simple. The cards feature a bunch (a gaggle… a murder?) of deaths and you have to decide whether they’re real or made up – true or false. If you guess right, you advance around the board… but there’s the matter of the Grim Reaper chasing you as you go! If you want to win, you have to outrun the Reaper (or, at least, aim for a dead heat). Can you (pall)bear(er) the pressure? Of corpse you can!Players take it in turn to read out Stupid Death cards. These cards contain deathly scenarios. For example, Brahe died from a bladder infection after politeness kept him from using the bathroom during a royal banquet, causing his bladder to rupture.

Prices from Stupid Deaths Each player received an Extra Life Token, a True voting card, and a False voting card. These will be used throughout the course of the game, so do not dispose of them!
