About the game
Your best friends are getting married, you are going to a family party, you are organising a friends weekend... And what if you spiced things up a bit by getting all these partygoers to kill each other? The organiser gives everyone an assignment and a target amongst the attendees and gets ready to count the dead... As soon as a killer has accomplished his mission, he takes the assignment and the target of the dead person for himself. At the end of the game, the best serial killer and the last man standing will be rewarded! The goal of Killer Party is to be the one person to succeed in the hunt, but all the others are trying to stab you in the back...

The catalogue lists Killer Party for ages 14 and up. This is the publisher’s recommendation and reflects reading demands, rule complexity and small components rather than theme alone.
