About the game
Schinderhannes: Schwarzer Peter, an expansion for Schinderhannes, consists of eight "not true" cards. During the game, you can play one of these cards with an information card to reverse the information provided by that card. If, for example, a player plays the card "Schinderhannes commits a crime in the east" and the "Schwarzer Peter" card, then the information becomes "Schinderhannes commits a crime not in the east" (i.e., he commits a crime in the west).
