Suicidium is a board game released in 2016 for 2–4 players, 15–30 minutes per game, and ages 18 and up. It was designed by Valentino Sergi and Michela Coletto and its main mechanics are Hand Management, Take That, and Player Elimination.
Suicidium is a captivating, grim and funny card-game. The purpose is to put an end to your character's existence or to those of your opponents (Yes, you get it: two gameplays in one box of 110 cards). Is it aggressive? No. Is it disdainful? Sure. Is it ironic? You bet! And you'll love to make fun of something so scary! Rules are very easy to learn and offer two different gameplay for 2, 3, or 4 players. You start with 10 will points and 7 cards. When you play a card (points or random-effect), your opponents can answer it. Your aim is to reset your will in order to get and collect the object cards.
Suicidium supports 2–4 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 Suicidium is 15–30 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 Suicidium for ages 18 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.
Suicidium has a complexity rating of 1.3 out of 5 from BoardGameGeek players, which makes it a light game. The rating reflects how much rules knowledge, planning and decision-making a typical game demands. Expect a longer first teach for heavier games, and use a preparation guide before game night.
