Hamlet
Hamlet’s emotions clash for dominance across scenes of Shakespeare’s tragedy. Players embody Fear, Despair, Doubt, Envy, Pride, or Anger, using character cards to compete across four scenes in each of two acts. Winning scenes grants Influence, bringing an emotion closer to consuming Hamlet’s mind. One player may instead represent Harmony, seeking to balance the opposing emotions and end the tragedy in a draw.
