Black Stories 2 board game

Black Stories 2 is a deduction party game for two or more players aged 12 and up, with a playing time of about 20 minutes. One player, the storyteller, knows the full story, while everyone else receives just one sentence as a starting point. The investigators ask questions that the storyteller may answer only with yes or no, until they have pieced together what really happened. The storyteller then reads out the complete case, and the next of the 52 possible stories can begin.

The cases are rather macabre, yet told with a dark sense of humour: puzzling events, grim murders, unfortunate accidents, cunning robberies and a few innocent misunderstandings. Anyone who enjoys laughing at other people's misfortune will find plenty to like here.

The goal is to uncover the truth from a handful of clues. The game encourages logical thinking, careful listening and good questioning. Additional logistical puzzles make the investigation even more challenging.
