About this game
Fiesta de los Muertos hands you a deceased character to describe in a single word, then makes you watch that word warp as it passes silently from person to person around the table. By the time it comes back, it barely resembles what you started with, and now everyone has to deduce which drifting word belongs to which colorful character. It's a co-op game built on a very simple engine, imagination plus a game of telephone plus honest guessing, and it only takes fifteen minutes to fall apart in the best way. Constraint cards twist the challenge further, and everyone wins or loses together, so the giggling stays friendly even when the deduction goes completely sideways.
