Gloom - A family game night favorite or not?

So last week while Nickkie was perusing the game section on Amazon she happened to stumble upon this new card game called Gloom. Only she could find a game of this fashion, for if you ever met her you would know why as she is very unique.

At any rate after dinner tonight we all sat down and got comfy in our chairs with our cups of water and the remainders of the Strawberry pie we had for desert sitting close to us Marina began to shuffle the cards while Nickkie handed out the Family cards consisting of humorous characters with morbid backgrounds. You see the whole idea to this game is that you have to kill off the family members and the ones that have the most negative points at the end win. It was quite interesting. Good thing I had Keil by me to show me what cards to play and which one to get rid of. I still managed to lose with the horrific cards I ended up with time and time again thanks to Marina's shuffling.

I guess I can look forward to the next time ... Until then I will insert some photos of the cards

PS. I had one death in the family as you can see from the grave card.
