Like your everyday life, this is a self-righteous game of Virtues and Vices. To win, just make yourself look better than everyone else!
Objective
Protect your Soul by hiding behind a superficial Wall. Earn points by covering your crappy Vices with Virtues, or by exposing the Vices of your enemies!
The player with the most points at the end wins.
There are two main ways to get points:
Attack enemy Virtues and claim them as your own, or attack enemy Vices to expose their crap to the world.
Making them look bad... makes you look great!
OR by cleaning your filthy Soul with Virtues and making your own Vices disappear down the toilet.
It feels good to get away with your crap.
But BEWARE:
If your Wall isn't built up, and your Soul is exposed - other players can C.R.A.P on your Soul for a big chunk of points!
Let's take a look at a basic turn:
Share information about your brand with your customers. Describe a product, make announcements, or welcome customers to your store.
Draw 3 cards
There is no limit to how many cards you can have in your hand or how many you can play on your turn. You may use all of your cards, or do nothing at all.
Then, make your moves.
What can you do? See the options below:
A. Build your Wall
By doing either of the following:
• Laying down Vices from your hand onto your Wall
• Buying Virtues to place on top of your Vices
B. Earn points
By doing any of the following:
• Taking Virtues and Vices from enemy Walls with 2 Attack cards
• Flushing your Virtue-covered Vices from your Wall with 2 Good Deeds
• "Crapping" on exposed Souls with the letters C.R.A.P.
C) More!
Play Steal cards, collect all 3 Crappens for a power play, OR do nothing and save cards for later.
Then, your turn ends.
After you've played all you want to play, let people know you're finished. You can say, "I'm done!" or even better, "I'm pooped!".
End of the game = Whichever comes first:
-
Scenario 1
When only one player's Soul is left in the game. everything is immediately over. Count your points to determine the winner!
-
Scenario 2
Once the Draw Pile runs out a 2nd time, the Discard Pile can be reshuffled so each player gets an equal amount of turns. When the last player finishes, count your points!
