Black Stories: Shit Happens Edition

About this board game

Black Stories: Shit Happens Edition is a spooky card game for 2–15 players, with a play time of about 20 minutes. Designed for teenagers and adults, it challenges players to reconstruct strange and mysterious crimes through questions, guesses, and deduction.

Each of the game’s 50 stories is based on something that really happened. Written by life, these incidents are mostly absurd, creating a collection of morbid puzzles that can surprise, confuse, and entertain a group.

To uncover what happened, players ask questions and try to piece together the hidden circumstances of each story. The answers are limited to yes or no, so every question matters as players gradually narrow down the possibilities.
