Description

Have you noticed patterns that conventional media does not explain? Do you want to know who is pulling the strings behind global decisions? Then It's Just A Theory is the game for you. In this fast-paced, storytelling card game players take on the role of conspiracy theorists competing against each other to come up with the greatest and most entertaining conspiracy theories.

During the game players create a conspiracy theory together, using ‘fact’ cards that show concepts or objects which can be used to form conspiracy theories. One player is the lead conspiracy theorist who will start creating a theory using their cards. The lead conspiracy theorist will try to guide the theory towards an ending on one of their propaganda cards. However to do this they will have to compete against every other conspiracy theorist at the table, who wishes to highjack their theory and explain their own deluded ideas. Other players hijack a theory by trying to use their cards to interrupt and successfully challenge the theory. The winner of a round is the player who plays their propaganda card ending the theory. Points are scored by finishing theories and more points are awarded by playing more cards. The winner is the conspiracy theorist who has the most points at the end of the game.

So don your tinfoil hat, open your third eye and prepare to discover truths you did not know about the world, and remember; It’s Just A Theory.
