The
Director's Cut is here! Kill Doctor Lucky: Director's Cut is a
new twist on the old favorite, including funnier Failure Cards,
an extra game board, and an expanded rulebook featuring director's
commentary from James Ernest. Don't worry, we haven't changed
a thing about the original game. We've just added a bunch of new
features to make you seriously consider buying it all over again.
Why do all mystery games start just after all the fun is over?
Welcome to the J. Robert Lucky mansion, a sprawling country estate
just ten miles north of nowhere. It's a fine country home, chock
full of unusual weapons, good hiding places, and craven killers.
Killers like you.
The object? Kill Doctor Lucky. Find a weapon, track the old man
down, and do him in. The obstacles? For one thing, all of your
friends would rather do it first. For another, Doctor Lucky is
aptly named. You would think that after being stabbed, hung, poisoned,
and poked in the eye, the Old Doctor would just lie down and accept
his fate. But he's got more lives than Rasputin, and an uncanny
knack for dodging your best traps.
Stick to it. Persevere. The Doctor's luck won't last forever.
Before the night is over, someone is going to kill Doctor Lucky.
And it might as well be you.
Game Synopsis: Everyone starts in the Drawing
room, and everyone wants to kill Doctor Lucky. Players move around
the mansion looking for weapons and trying to catch the old man
alone. Trying to kill the Doctor is pretty easy, but every other
player can play Failure cards to stop you. Doctor Lucky's luck
runs out eventually, though, and you just hope you can catch him
when it does.
