Since part of the context for this post is in English and part of it is in Swedish, I’ll go with English – pretending that we might have international visitors. The idea behind this game is to make a game adhering to the lumpley principle pass as an ordinary game, instantly recognizable to most people.
There are two key difference between ordinary TP and this version. First, the categories are different and the question is always “what do you do?”. Second, there’s a die roll used in determining the consequences of a player’s response to the question.
Trivial Pursuit, the horror game
What you need: A Trivial Pursuit or similar game. Some friends.
What you do: You navigate the game board, trying to overcome the six different horrors and trying to collect a “pip” of each color. To do so, you must make stuff up and refer to things your friends have said. The player who first manages to collect all six pips is declared the winner.
What are the horrors: There are six different horrors in the game. Every turn, you’ll be exposed to one or more of these horrors. Successfully dealing with the horror means you can take an additional turn.
When setting up the game, green player decides what the green horror is about, blue decides blue and so on. If you are less than six players, come up with the “missing colors” together or choose from the list below
Zombies, A mad scientist, Vampires, An alien creature, Demons, An evil organization
The White re-roll squares are not horrors, there you simply reroll the die.
How you do it:
1. Roll a die
2. Move your piece
3. The player to your left presents you with a challenge, according to the color of the square you landed in
4. You respond to the challenge, possibly refering to other players’ responses
5. Roll a die and determine outcome
On your turn, roll a die and move your pice accordingly in any direction. If the die shows 3, you move three squares.
When your piece lands in a square, the player to your left offers you a challenge. The player is free to make up anything, as long as it has something to do with the horror corresponding with the color of the square.
Now, you must respond to the challenge. You are free to make up anything, as long as it has something to do with the challenge you were presented with.
Both you and the player to your left roll the die. Whoever scored highest is the winner of the challenge and briefly describes the outcome. If you won, you immediately get to make another turn. In addition, you get a pip of the corresponding color if you were at one of the “headquarters”.
How do you refer: When making stuff up, whether it’s as a challenge or as a means of overcoming the challenge, you may refer to something another player has made up. If the other players agree that this referens would work to your advantage, you get +1 on your die roll. You may refer to muliple players, but only once to each.
Example: You land on a pink square and pink being zombies, the player to your left says “your totally getting attacked by zombies! They want your brain.” So, to refer you could say “Ok. but since they just got whacked in the head by Rebecka, they’re a bit slow so I’ll outrun them.” Rebecka nods cause, yeah – she did whack’em, and you get +1 to your roll. Also, you could add “And Simon, he’s been running away from them alot so I guess I’ll just follow his example and head for the woods”. Now you get to roll with +2.
Optional rules:
If you land in a square that’s already occupied by another player, you may fight him/her for a pip. Tell the player how you do it, referring to any or all of the bad things that has previously happened to your fellow player. Then, s/he tells you how s/he wards you off, referring to any or all of the bad things that has happened to you.
You may, if you wish, use your pip as a weapon. To do so, just say you do and what pip you’re using. This allows you to re-roll your die when overcoming a challenge or warding off a fellow player attacking you. however, if you roll 1 when rerolling, you lose your pip and must return it.
Jag hatar ordet nörd. Det är för mig ett ord som klingar väldigt falskt. Ett ord med otroligt mycket negativt bagage. Jag har själv försökt hantera det genom att använda den engelska synonymen “geek”. Orsaken är nog att jag aldrig känt mig som en nörd, med allt vad det innebär.

Då var det dags för ännu en inblick i Magicvärlden, efter att det första inledningsruset lagt sig och jag blivit en dussinbrukare av magiska bilder började jag fundera. Jag har en duglig mängd kort, pärmar, plastfickor, glaspluttar, leklådor och alla de andra prylar och pinaler som kännetecknar en magicspelare.
