Trial by Trolley (A Cyanide & Happiness Card Game)

In Trial by Trolley, one player acts as the Trolley Operator and must choosewhere to send a murderous, out of control, trolley. Every other player at thetable plays cards and argues in order to convince the operator to spare theirlives and condemn everyone on the other track to a gruesomedeath-by-trolley.

Each round, one player will act as the trolley conductor. This person will bethe judge, and will choose which track the trolley will murder.

Each other player is divided evenly among teams, and each player(s) will havea role for the round.

To begin, one player will draw 3 angelic tracks, choose one to play to thetable, and then randomly reveal a 2nd angelic track from the deck to add to thetrack. Another player will draw 3 demonic tracks, and choose to add one to theopposing teams track, attempting to sabotage them, and spare their own tracks.Finally, player(s) will draw track modifiers to place on any track card on thetable. They can play on their own tracks, to sway the judge, or they may play ontheir opponents, to further sway the judge into murdering theiropponent's track.

The judge will ponder this conundrum, and eventually decide to murder onetrack. The track that was spared is the winner for the round!

Play continues for a number of rounds pre-determined by the number of playersat the table.

Trial by Trolley is a game for 3–13 players, and plays in about 30–90minutes.
