Mothers have always wanted their children to grow up to be doctors or lawyers. Lawyers? Really? Wasn't it Shakespeare who said: "First, we kill all the lawyers"? Whether the old bard was right or not depends a lot on how you view the legal profession. How do YOU tell the difference between a dead skunk and a lawyer when both are lying in the road? If you answer the skunk's the one with skid marks in front of it, you'll enjoy the merciless harpooning in store for the brothers of the BAR in BLIND JUSTICE...The Game of Lawsuits. This simple, fun-to-play boardgame is the newest product to feed the public's love/hate relationship with the law profession.
BLIND JUSTICE pokes fun at barristers the world over, while citing actual cases of litigation for the players to resolve as both plaintiff and jury. Each player assumes the role of a prosecuting attorney representing a litigant in a trial. The player draws a Court Case Card and reads a condensed version of an actual lawsuit-injecting it with all the necessary fiery adjectives that will convince the jury to award his client rightly or wrongly a windfall in damages. Along the way, players will be alternately amused or enraged by just how little they know about the law-or, depending on your point of view-how little the law knows.
Play also includes out-of-court settlements and lawyer-harpooning Chance Cards as players work their way up from District Court to Superior Court and on to the Supreme Court and victory by amassing...what else..Lots of money. Whether you admire or detest the legal profession, you'll enjoy hours of hilarious and educational entertainment with BLIND JUSTICE... a 90-minute game game for three or four players or teams. |
