Machine of Death: The Game of Creative Assassination – Death by Genre

In a world where a machine predicts a person’s cause of death from a small blood sample, assassins use its vague and twisted predictions to plan elaborate killings. Players receive a target, a Death Prediction, and Black Market Gift Cards representing tools and resources, then create and execute a plan through storytelling and dice rolls. Failed plans may be revised with new ideas, replacement items, or specialist help. Multiple game modes support judging competing plans, cooperative missions, strategic risk-taking, player-versus-player assassinations, and non-lethal tasks such as opening a stuck jar or transplanting a tulip. The card set includes 150 themed death cards covering Space, Noir, Pirate, Adventure, and Pestilence & Plague.
