The Shame of Life review


Publisher: Self-published (KS)

Designer: Emily & Gareth

Released: Q4 2019

The Shame of Life is launched on Kickstarter in 2019.

It’s described itself as a game “for people who like imagining ridiculous situations, solving improbable problems and talking crap with friends”. The game aims for the players to lose their inhibitions and have some great conversations around some pretty crazy topics.

Warning: this is an adult game, so if you group takes offence or easily embassesed on topics around nudity, sexual themes etc then this isn’t going to be for them. It’s very much targeted at the Cards Against Humanity (CoH) crowd.

There are 4 types of card; Dilemma, Discuss, Debate & Describe! (see photos).
Each one asks a question for the group to answer with one player judging the answers. The topic are you certainly things you wouldn’t discuss everyday.

If your gaming group loves CoH then check out SoL.
