The murderer is chosen at random. (Depending on how many players you have, put that same number of cards in a hat, making sure to include the Queen of Spades. Whoever pulls the Queen of Spades is the “Killer”).
Once everyone has drawn a card, the game begins!
This “Killer” murders with a wink of the eye. It is his or her goal to “kill” as many players as possible by winking at them without being caught by another player. The unlucky victims must fall over dead; the more dramatic, the better!
To make an accusation, (and anyone can at any time) a player announces “I would like to make an accusation”. If they are correct a new killer is chosen, all victims are revived and a fresh game is begun. If they are wrong, they die.
