Description

Each player is dealt six cards. Each card has a number from one to ten. A player who is dealt a hand totaling thirty-five or more is a Replicant; otherwise one is Human. The object is find a Replicant and destroy one to win the game.

A player may take a look at any card in the player's hand by landing on any of the opponent's "VK Monitor Terminals."
Winning combat is a matter of rolling a higher number on the dice than the opponent.

The game is based on the movie Blade Runner but withdrawn because the publisher did not have permission from the movie studio. It was never put into full production and is thus exceptionally rare, only 100 boards were made. It was printed by a small company in California (now defunct) and released to test markets in San Francisco and Los Angeles back in 1982-83. These are licensed products and bear the "Blade Runner Partnership" trademark. - As for the game itself, it's obviously a prototype.
