About this board game
Black Stories: Funny Death Edition is a deduction game for 2–15 players that takes about 20 minutes to play. One player presents a strange riddle, while the other players work together to discover what happened.
Each card contains a riddle on the front and its answer on the back. The storyteller reads the riddle to the group, then listens as the other players ask questions and test their theories. The storyteller may answer only yes or no, making every question an important step toward solving the mystery.
The scenarios focus on weird murders and deaths, giving the game its distinctive and unusual theme. Players must connect the limited information they receive, reconsider their assumptions, and use logical questioning to reconstruct the events described by each card.

With its short playing time and support for a large group, this edition suits sessions built around shared deduction and conversation. Every card challenges players to look beyond the obvious and find the story behind a bizarre outcome.
