Schrödinger's Cats

Players play rival cat physicists running a thought experiment about cats in boxes. Each round players hold a hand of cards showing alive cats, dead cats, or empty boxes and take turns making claims about the minimum number of a particular face among all cards in play. On a turn a player may raise the current claim or call the previous player. Players also have a one-time special ability tied to their physicist to bend the rules or inspect cards. When a call resolves, the incorrect player is eliminated; winners draw a new hand with one fewer card. Play continues in elimination rounds until only one player remains.
