Death Wish

A light-hearted party card game about racing to contract fictional diseases and be the first player to die. Players collect matching symptoms and afflicters to catch diseases displayed on the table, with new diseases constantly appearing. Common white strains are less harmful, while rare red strains are more dangerous. When contracting a disease, players announce what they caught, how they caught it, and the symptoms they are suffering from. Outbreak cards add unpredictable effects, including mutated diseases, attacks on other players, and bringing someone back to life. More than 240 cards create varied diagnosis combinations.
