Would you like a cup of tea? ARSENIC is a family game, for 1 to 6 players, from 7 years old and offering games of about 15 minutes. This party-game is based on the stop-or-go principle and is tinged with reflection, bluffing, strategy and a touch of luck. Players must compete with each other to stop before it's too late. A good statistical analysis of the remaining biscuits and their potential danger can help you to get out of the game... But these reassuring figures are unfortunately often distorted by the boundless perfidy of your opponents. Be careful, because sometimes it doesn't take much to get trapped and pass from life to death. The inheritance is mine! In order to be able to collect your dear Uncle's inheritance money, you must be able to finish his tea without losing your life. So, when there is no one left and you are the last survivor of the tea party, you will be the one and only heir worthy of the name, and the inheritance will be yours.
One bite too many! The trick to winning is to estimate the right moment to stop. That is, when there are only a handful of potentially poisonous biscuits left in the box. When a player stops, the others are obliged to continue for 2 more rounds. It is therefore necessary to observe the expressions of the players as they pick in order to estimate their level of poisoning. Of course, they can act and hide their game well (the deceivers!). To be sure of winning the inheritance, you must be sure to have collected a good quantity of biscuits so that you don't lose the inheritance for one or two biscuits less than any other survivor.
