Welcome to I Am Death Now?

You are Student Deaths trying to earn your official Death License. This is your Death Certification Examination (DCE). To pass your DCE you must use the five Pain Categories (Physical, Psychological, Emotional, Existential and Supernatural) to successfully kill all of your Test Subjects before the rest of your Classmates. Do you have what it takes to become Death?

HOW TO PLAY

Each player randomly draws a Death Student.

On your turn you use your Pain cards to inflict Pain on your Test Subjects. Inflict enough Pain and that Test Subject dies.

Each Test Subject has a

unique Pain tolerance

which can only be satisfied

with a Pain card that

matches that Pain Category.
