| The card game Guillotine is a caricature style card gamed, aimed at poking fun at the French Revolution. Your job is to earn top bragging rights by beheading the most popular nobles in the deck (they are worth more points). Some nobles are worth up to five points, while others are actually worth negative points - so it is best to try to pass them off to your opponents! Each round is played as one day, with the third day as the last round. Twelve noble cards are lined up on the table for each new day. Players place the guillotine at the first card on the right hand side. Nobles can only be collected from where the guillotine stands, however, the order of the line is always changing due to the various action cards put into play. Action cards allow players to move cards forward or backward a set number of spaces, randomly rearrange the entire order of the line, take all the cards out of line and start with twelve new cards, switch cards with another player, switch the guillotine to the back of the line, and various other actions! The line is always in a state of flux, making it a fun and unpredictable game. Whoever has the most points at the end of day three wins the game. An addicting card game that is sure to please any blood thirsty crowd!
