Skull and Roses

Description
Traditionally, biker gangs chose their leaders through a merciless contest called “Back on the Pavement”, which consisted of seeing who could last the longest while being dragged behind a heavy cylinder... without spilling his beer. The sorry state of their leather after such trials caused some of them to look for a cheaper alternative, however. It's during their regular meetings at their favorite bar, the “Skull & Roses”, that the more Machiavellian bikers created a fearsome game of bluff which is still used to this day to choose their supreme leader.

Skull and roses designed by Hervé Marly and published by Asmodee, Granna, and Lui-même.

Got it. Yea maybe removing the text would b good. Not that critical a change tho.

The playmat is used as a scorecard for the most part. It starts at "Skulls" and when you accomplish one bet, you flip it to "Roses". When you succeed in another bet, you win the game. It's helpful for other player's to know how close you are to winning.

As for the colored card backs, in the print copy of the game, they have some very pretty art to differentiate the players. Unfortunately, I have been unable to find good quality images to use yet, so for now I just assigned each player a color. If I can find good quality images of the card backs I will include them. Maybe I should remove the text from the card backs if it is making things confusing.

I don't really get why you need a playmat.. I think it'd be nicer looking to have the backs of the cards say either "skulls" or "roses". Or match how it is in the game (haven't seen it irl, so I don't know how it is)

Hey Unreal. Well, the playmat says "skull" one one side and "roses" on the other. You place your cards on top of this playmat and flip it over when you succeed in your bet. The colored decks which say "Skull & Roses" are the actual cards you use to play. Let me know if there's anything else you need to know!

Thx for putting it up! What's the "skull & roses" card?

And are the "skull" & "roses" the card backs?
