Deck of Lies

Game Objective

• Players try to convince others that their declarations about the cards they hold are true – even if they're bluffing
• The goal is to eliminate opponents or get rid of all your cards.

General Rules

• Win condition: Be the last one standing or get rid of all your cards!
• The player to the left is the previous player, the player to the right is the next player.
• Each round ends with challenging the previous player and taking a shot based on the revealed cards.
• Cards are not revealed unless challenged, so bluffing is possible.
• One card from Q/K/A is designated as the Table Card

What Will You Need For A Standard Game?

• Cards: Queen (Q) ×6, King (K) ×6, Ace (A) ×6, Joker ×2. (★)
• Table or flat surface for play.
• From 2 to 4 players.

Special Cards

• Table Card: A randomly selected face card (Q, K, or A) that determines which cards players must (or pretend to) play in a given round.
• Joker: A wild card that can substitute for any required table card (Q, K, or A).

Turn Sequence

• In your turn, you can play cards, placing them face down in the center of the table.
• The next player can either believe you and play their cards or challenge your truthfulness by saying "Liar!".

Liar Challenge

• If someone challenges your declaration:
• - The played cards are revealed
• - It's checked whether all cards match the current requirement (table card)

• If the player's declaration turns out to be true – the challenger must pull the trigger of the revolver.
• If bluffing is discovered – the player who lied must pull the trigger.

Russian Roulette

• Each player's revolver is loaded with one bullet, randomly positioned between shots 1-6. The indicator (x/6) of other players shows the shots[...]
• The player who lost the challenge must pull the trigger of the revolver.
• If the revolver fires, the player loses and is out of the game.
• If the revolver doesn't fire, the game continues.

Game Flow

• After each shot from the revolver (regardless of the outcome), new cards are dealt and a new table card is drawn.
• The game ends when only one living player remains or when a player gets rid of all their cards.
