EL ASESINO DE LA NOCHE//THE MURDERER OF THE NIGHT

Players number: 3 or more (6 or more recommended).
One card per player.
Objective: To have a nice time trying to discover who is “The murder of the night”.
The game develops and proves the ability of the murderer to deceive the rest of the players.

Any kind of cards can be used as long as which one represents the murderer and which one represents the first victim is established previously. For example, when using the Spanish deck it could be established that the king of swords represents the murderer and the ace of cups it’s the first victim. Any other criteria could be used, though.

One card is given to each player (the more the merrier). All the players will take a look at their card and then keep it reversed so that nobody else can see it. Only the first victim will reveal his card (in our example the ace of cups). Then he will say “The night comes” and everyone (expect for him) will shut their eyes; after a short while the murderer will open his eyes and point at his new victims. The first victim will keep them in mind and, after the murderer closes his eyes again, he will say “The sun rises” and tell everyone who are the new victims (1, 2, 3… it depends on the number of players).

At this point, all the players that are still alive will ague and try to find out who is the murderer (while he tries to stay undiscovered). If no clear agreement is reached it will be decided through votes who the murderer is.

If the most voted person was really the murderer, the game is over. Else, a new round is played: everyone shuts their eyes, the murderer kills some more players when “The night comes” and the remaining ones try to discover who did it when “The sun rises”.

The game goes on until there are only 3 players left. At this moment, two of them will point out at the murderer by shacking their hands leaving him out. If one of the handshackers is the murderer, he will kill the other one and win the game. Otherwise, he will be discovered and thus lose the game.
