Frequently Asked Questions!
Consult these before you flip over the table and storm off.
If I don’t have any cards, what happens to me? You still get a card but do not pass one on.
Can I pass on the card that I received?
No, you cannot. Nice try!
I picked up a Psycho killer but I had no Signal. Can I play my double tap or single tap?
No, you cannot. Those are cards and you can’t play them.
I played a No signal and then reversed the direction of play. Who Am I screwing over?
End your turn. Whoever's turn it is Right now doesn’t get to play a card.
Do I Have to give away two cards, or can it just be one?
It HAs to be two! Decisions, decisions!
Can I play my Trip Over on A Psycho Killer or predicament card?
Wouldn’t that be nice? No, you cannot. You cannot play this card on any card that has a stop symbol on it.
Is there a time limit on when I can use my trip over?
Yes. You must play this card before the action of the card you are trying to stop has been complete. For example, if someone plays a 'drop your keys' and tries to give you two cards, you can stop the action of that card up until the point where you look at the cards.
Another example would be if a player uses a 'Disarm'. You can stop that action right up to the point that they shuffle their weapons into the deck, but once they have done that they can't really take them back now, can they?
Can I play the card that I just picked up?
Yes. Playing book of the dead doesn’t end your turn so you can keep on playing after you’ve picked up the card that you want.
Can I single or double tap someone else’s Psycho Killer?
Nope!
Can I single or double tap a betrayal?
No, stop asking!
Can someone play a trip over on my single tap?
