About the game
Divorce! The Game is a game about America's Favorite Pastime. Two players take turns drawing two cards, keeping one and giving the other to their opponent. Like real-life divorce mediation, players will have to make tense decisions. Do you take an item that you want--or do you prevent your opponent from getting an item that might be valuable to them? As you fight for your house and your kids, you'll have to play dirty: use lawyers to steal back items, plant incriminating evidence on your opponent, and buy bribes to get the edge. The deck includes cards like Alimony, Mistrial, Tax Fraud, and more, granting players unique abilities to use during the game. In addition, you can sell off your possessions to the Pawn Shop in order to fund the legal proceedings. At the end of the game, the parent that won over their children's hearts gets to take them home--and all the child support that goes along with it.
