Ghastly Roulette

Ghastly Roulette is a ghost themed party card game with a focus on social interaction and metagaming. Players die from Events and kill other players with Items and Bullet Tokens and turning them into ghosts that can haunt the living with curses and scares! 

Blood Pressure Trackers:

Blood Pressure Trackers keep track of how high your BP (Blood Pressure) is by using a BP Token. Every player starts the game at 0, but through Events, Ghost Cards, and Items their BP can fluctuate. If a player's BP gets to 5, they die and become a Ghost!

Event Cards:

As a living player you draw an Event Card at the beginning of every turn. Some Events make players compete in silly ways for a reward, while others mess around with the game's mechanics.

Ghost Cards:

Ghost Cards are drawn at the end of every Ghost's turn. They are then played by Ghosts onto living players to make them do ridiculous things in order to stay alive. If one of their cards kills someone, the Ghost comes back to life!

Item Cards:

Item Cards are drawn by living players when they roll to draw them on the Item Die. Items can do anything from messing around with game mechanics, protecting a player from a Bullet, letting a player draw a Bullet Token, or killing a player, to just taking up  space in a player's hand.

Bullet Tokens:

Bullet Tokens are drawn by living players at special times throughout the game. Players cannot look at their Bullet Token until they choose to fire it at another player. Real Bullet kill players automatically whereas Blanks increase that player's Blood Pressure. When a player's Blood Pressure gets to 5, they die!
