Review of THE LAWYERS GAME

I found this little card game at an All For One dollar store. I found it interesting because of what a group of role-players could do with it. 36 Crime Cards discribe defendants and the crimes they are charged with. One player choses a card and has 1 minute to, acting as a lawyer, defend their client's case. Then, each other player gets to ask 1 question for cross-examination and even introduce newly fabricated facts to the case. The other players acting as the jury then decide the verdict. The defending player must guess the verdict correctly to score.

There's a lot of room for embellishment and over-acting here, a creative group of (3 to 5) players could have a lot of fun with this. I can also see it falling flat should the players not be in the mood or lack the drive to play their roles. For a buck, it's worth the gamble. Keep an eye on those dollar stores, the box says there are Doctor and Politician games as well.
