Kill Doctor Lucky
Everyone wants Dr. Lucky dead, but only someone who is unobserved can pull it off.
Who it's for
You like murder-mystery humor and tactical movement games with a bit of bluffing. It works especially well with five.
Not for you if…
You want quick, fast-paced turns or dislike games with a lot of waiting and watching.
Vibe's take
Silly and scheming, with a dry sense of humor and lots of watching and waiting. The tension is in not being seen and in guessing who still holds failure cards.
About this game
Clue turned inside out: you already know who did it, because it's you. You hate Dr. Lucky, and so does everyone else at the table. The catch is that you can only try the murder when nobody can see you; if anybody has a line of sight, you have to whistle nonchalantly and let him live. So you move around the mansion collecting weapons (extra nasty in the right room), failure cards to wreck other people's attempts, and movement cards to get the doctor alone. The real game is tempting the others to burn their failure cards before you make your move. Silly, scheming, and especially good with five.
