RULES:
The object of the game is to be the first player to reach 15 points. Setup. Set out the game mat and give someone a score pad and pencil. Give each player one: “A” and “B” pick cards and 1 “Double down” card. Shuffle the poison deck and deal 6 cards to each player. Players look at their own cards but keep them hidden from other players. The player with the most recent birthday is the first judge, the remaining players are the picking players.
Each round, the Judge picks one poison card from their hand and places it facedown on the “A” spot on the game mat. The picking players now pick one card from their hand and give it facedown to the judge. Once all the cards are handed over, the judge mixes then and reads them aloud. The judge picks one card and places it on the “B” spot on the game board-the goal being to create the most difficult “Would your rather…: scenario. The player who submitted that card immediately receives one point, which is marked on a score pad. The rest of the submitted cards are discarded.
The picking players must now pick either “A” or “B” based on which poison they would rather have. They may ask the judge any clarifying question about either poison and the judge may elaborate on each scenario however they like. Once a picking player is ready to pick one, they place their matching pick card, as indicated by the letter, face down on the table. The judge does not pick.
Once all the players have picked, all the pick cards are revealed, and points are scored. If all the picking players picked the same poison, then they each receive 1 point and the judge loses 2 points. If exactly half of the players picked each of the poisons, creating a tie, then the picking players receive no points and the judge receives 3 points. Otherwise, if the pick is uneven, then the players who picked the most popular poison, the majority, each receive 1 point.
Discard the poison cards in spots “A” and “B”. The role of judge rotates by 1. Each player draws 1 card to return their hand to 6 and the process repeats. The double down card may be repeatedly used until it is lost. During the pick phase, a player may play their double down card along with their facedown pick card. If they score zero points then the double down card is lost and they may not use it again, otherwise they score double what they otherwise would have.
The first player to 15 points wins!
Some alternate rules you can play with are:
Odds to even: When playing with an odd number of picking players, the judge picks a poison card along side the other players. The judge only receives points if the round ends in a tie.
Super judge: The judge gets 1 point for each player who voted for the minority poison.
Two-for-one: The judge picks 2 poisons for the A spot and each player submits 2 cards for the judge to pick 2 poisons for the B spot.
Lucky Draw: The judge draws the top card of the deck instead of choosing a poison card from their hand for the “A” spot.
Freshen Up: Before any round begins, at the cost of 1 point, players can return their hand to the bottom of the deck and draw 6 new cards.
I thought this was a dare game till I saw 'lose two toes'
you dont know how much i laughed at thi scomment xd
Well, you could play it as a dare game. It just depends on how far you are willing to go.

So it's basically the second phase of Split the Room except the theme is always "Pick a potion" and the first answer is not selected by the game but rather by the Judge
Nah. This game predates _Split the Room_ (March versus October 2018).

Cool! I just got this game about a week ago. Some friends and I were trying to do a couple practice rounds, but it was a little confusing for me. Haha! Thanks for this!
I bought this and a pack of cards for White Elephant on Christmas Eve and immediately got them back so now, I’m learning how to play!
tbh I would play it CaH style or even Million-dollars-but style. I bought both the original game and an expansion pack and honestly debated setting it on fire after seeing all the steps that go into ONE TURN!
THANK YOU so much for making it so easy to understand how to play. Awesome job keep making the videos!!
The judges first card says face up in instructions. You say face down. Which is it?
Wow this game is awesome my niece Jackie gave it to me for Christmas yay yay
I thought the instructions said that the round starts by the Judge placing the A card face UP on the board, but it could be a mistake...
That's what we just read! It does, right?!
I read the same thing. I’m so confused
I feel like it works better starting off face down, so the players/choosers can’t give a not so bad alternative 🤔
Some games I suggest for future how-to videos are senet (a game from Ancient Egypt), Reverse Charades, Word Mines, Wits and Wagers, Bezzerwizzer and I Should Have Known That by Hugge Games
yeah... my friends are dumb they won't be able to absorb all this information.
It is alot of information, count me dumb, im out
I have it but just skip most the steps and do it CaH or MDB style
And on their turn they read out all of the things and then the other person has to guess which one day would rather out of the three that they have is to see if you know the other person as well as you do
Advice: watch this video at 1.25x speed.
THANK YOU!!!!!
Yes. This.
I directly up to 1.5, thanks anyway
I do 2x
That’s 62.5% of the speed I watch why would I do that
And as proven by Just Kidding Party, it's a lot of fun
Other ideas but the loom loom is looking at me right now I can feel the eyes I can feel the eyes
So it's just Would You Rather + Cards against Humanity?
p much, or if it's just 2 of you just do it "million dollars but..." style
One of the main rules of the game is described wrong! The judge should place their card face up, not face down!
Good example thx
This game would have been a hit had the creators come up with an easier point system to follow but the game can become too complicated and tedious, especially when drinking and just trying to relax.
Very informational!
MISTAKE (“Odds to Even”)
Yeah I think there’s a mistake in the “odds to even” description. You say in this version that the judge picks a POISON card along with the other players and only wins points in the result of a tie which makes no sense. I think you mean to say that the judge lays down a PICK card (either A or B) in order to make the number of players even instead of odd, so as to create a scenario where there could be a tie, allowing the judge to win points. If the judge picks another poison card that does fuckall to change the number of players from odd to even and wouldn’t create a scenario where there would be any kind of tie… Y’all should watch these vids before posting them on here, bruh.
3:36 alternate title: you have trouble? Make it double.
I thought this was a dare game till Isaw lose two toes
Would you rather have super skinny arms or too-wide shoulders?
i created a game myself using cards
not explaining

As long as I don't have to really eat any scabs I will play it
Don't take the Mark of the Beast ! (666) Inside your right hand or forehead!

Blah blah blah the way I play it is I we deal out three cards to each other right and me and a partner

Worst game don't buy!
Your voice is so monotone, bruh. It makes a great game seem boring AF.
Make a better video.
Its a how-to instruction video 🤨
Leave it to this guy to make the game boring... Jesus man, change your tone to something more joyful..
This is an informative video. What did you expect?
I found it helpful and clear
This game is so much fun drunk😂
