black stories Epic Fails

They are black, mysterious, and thoroughly evil: Black Stories – this is the cult series from moses. that has been around for over 15 years! The morbid, creepy, shocking, and sometimes entertaining puzzles revolve around death and accidents that could not be more gruesome. Why did a car thief die even though the police fired no shots? How is it possible that a man voluntarily sits in the electric chair? And why was a man suddenly punished for something he had done countless times before? The goal is to uncover the stories behind these scenarios through guessing. It's not always that easy.

Bad luck? Fate? Outrageous stupidity? They all tend to lead to embarrassingly catastrophic events, or in modern terms: Epic Fails. Tattooed spelling mistakes, exploding hemorrhoids, grilled peace doves – there’s hardly anything that hasn’t happened to someone at some point somewhere. What makes this edition of Black Stories special is that all these nonsensical, almost unbelievable stories are based on real events. Whether the result of a lack of intelligence or a macabre twist of fate, everything truly happened – wonder and incredulous head-shaking guaranteed.

Here’s how to play: The card set contains 50 tricky, pitch-black riddle cards for teenagers and adults that need to be solved through clever questioning. The most fun is cracking Black Stories together with friends. One person, the Master, takes a card from the stack and reads the short story on the front of the card. On the back of the card is the answer, which the Master keeps to themselves. Now the guessing group must "ask their way" to the solution of the story. The questions should be phrased so that they can be answered with "yes" or "no." A spooky-fun guessing game for small and large groups.
