About the Game

Poisoned Chalice is a fast-paced card game for 2 to 6 players. You will be playing cards to a common pile and adding up the score.

In this game you are competing nobles at a banquet table. As talk passes around the table you are adding wine (cards) to a shared chalice (common pile). When the chalice is full, the player holding it drinks (wins the trick). However, as well as wine you can choose to add poison. Not too much (adding up to exactly 31) has no effect, but too much (adding up to more than 31) has a negative effect. Special card effects adjust scoring mechanisms, and impose effects on other players.

A game is played till one player either scores positive 61 points or negative 61 points.
