Description:


The revolutionary card game where you win by getting a head. This irreverent and humorous card game takes place during the French Revolution. Players represent rival guillotine operators ving for the best collection of noble heads over three rounds. Each round, twelve nobles are lined up for the guillotine. The nobles are worth varying points, depending on their notoriety. During your turn, you play action cards to change the order of the line so you can collect the best nobles. The plater with the most points at the end of the game wins. Will you be skillful enough to bribe the guards to collect Marie Antoinette? Or will you lose points for beheading the Hero of the People? Heads are going to roll!

Our Review:

This is a fun game when you don't want to think too hard. There is a lot of luck involved, but the cards are hilarious and the art is good. Lots of fun in a group that wants to have a laid back evening.

Guillotine rating: 5/5 stars Heads will Roll

This is a great game for more than 2 people. You can play with but it really takes away all the fun. It is best with about 4 people. This game has a lucky bent, but also relies on your own strategy. The game moves quickly and it is easy to play. You will find yourself laughing at the cards and the artwork.

Guillotine rating: 5/5 stars amazing game!

we play this games for hours and hours on end, amazingly entertained from start to finish. as a fairly intelligent person, i find this game to be strategic and skillful. but not so much that new players are intimidated or uninterested. the game moves quickly, and can generally be played with 3-5 people in less than half an hour. all of the people that have sat down to play this game go home captivated... get a few friends together and prepare yourself for hours of entertainment!
