Description

Bloody Christmas is a drinking boardgame that tasks a group of players to make their way to the bar and then back home. The first player to do so wins. To do so they take turns rolling a six sided die and simply move that number of spaces on the gameboard.

There are three types of spaces you may land on. Drink spaces require pulling a drink card from a pile in the center of the gameboard and simply taking that number of drinks before throwing the card in a discard pile to be shuffled and placed back in the center when there are no more drink cards to draw.

Fight spaces require the player to draw a fight card from the pile in the center of the board. These unique characters all have a power rating from 1 to 6. The player then has to roll a six sided die against the power of the fight card. If they win they keep the card and can use it once against their opponents to knock them back on the gameboard a number of spaces equal to the power of the card. If they lose they drink the difference of their roll and the power of the fight card as well as move back that many spaces on the gameboard.

The third type of spaces are home and the bar themselves. These are safe spaces where no fighting can occur. Otherwise no two players can occupy the same space on the board and will have to fight each other (by each rolling dice) to see who stays on the space and who gets bumped back the difference of the two rolls on the gameboard.
