    This game is the most fascinating that I've seen you play.... and I've been watching the whole playlist backwards (oldest to newest) for weeks. Definitely buying it to play with my pub people. The failure-discard and shuriken elements--and the deductive options that those open--elevate it WAY above just complex coin tossing. Plus it might be the only silent social deduction (without traitor) game ever invented. Inventing a new genre of gameplay is NOT an everyday occurrence.

Like, if you had a 91 in your hand, the chances of the players having any of the other cards is 9 percent... you'd lose a life, but in the 4th (third?) round of the third game, we see exactly that - they lose two lives, when they could have lost only one.
