Det dårlige selskab is a board game released in 2014 for 3–16 players, 30 minutes per game, and ages 16 and up. It was designed by Simon Konski and Jeppeh Olsen and its main mechanics are Hand Management and Simultaneous Action Selection.
Det dårlige selskab (The bad company) is a Danish party game in the style of Cards of Against Humanity and Apples to Apples. The players take turns being the judge. The judge flips over an orange card with a fill-in-the-blank text. Each of the players holds a hand of 13 black cards, and they contribute one of their cards unseen. One by one the cards are read aloud, and afterwards the judge picks a winner. The winner gains the orange card and adds it to his or her hand. Each player has a card limit of 13 cards, and each won card reduces the amount of black cards to choose from. Some of the orange cards have special effects, or require that two black cards be played. The game contains 90 orange cards and 360 black cards.
Det dårlige selskab supports 3–16 players according to the catalogue. This range comes from the publisher’s listed player count, so the game can be set up for any group size within it. Some setups, rules and scoring details may still vary by player count, so check your edition’s rulebook for the exact configuration.
The listed playing time for Det dårlige selskab is 30 minutes. This is the publisher’s estimate for a full game. The actual duration depends on the group, the player count and familiarity with the rules: first sessions usually run longer, while experienced groups often finish faster. Setup and teaching time are not included in this estimate.
The catalogue lists Det dårlige selskab for ages 16 and up. This is the publisher’s recommendation and reflects reading demands, rule complexity and small components rather than theme alone. Younger players can often join with help from an adult, so check the age guidance on your edition and consider your group’s experience with board games.
