Liar's Deck: Basic Mode
Deck Composition
In Basic Mode, the deck consists of 20 cards:
  • 6 Kings
  • 6 Queens
  • 6 Aces
  • 2 Jokers
Each player starts with 5 cards.

How it Works
1. At the beginning of each round:
  • The game picks one type of card for everyone to throw/claim to have (King, Queen, or Ace)
  • The deck is shuffled and everyone is given a new hand.

2. Gameplay:
  • Players can throw 1 to 3 cards each turn.
  • Jokers are wildcards that can substitute any card.
  • Example: With a hand of 2x Ace, 2x Queen, and 1x Joker, you'd be correct to claim to have:
    - 3x Ace
    - 3x Queen
    - 1x King

When it's your turn, you have 2 options:

1. Make a claim.
  • Choose cards to throw.
  • Your turn ends, and it moves to the player after you.
2. Call out the player before you for lying.
  • If they lied:
    - Their cards are revealed. If there’s at least one red card, they were lying, and they must
    play Russian Roulette.
  • If they told the truth:
    - Their cards are revealed. If they're all green, you were wrong, and you must face the
    gun.

Rinse and repeat until there is one player left.



Tips:
  • Keep track of the number of cards thrown by other players.
  • Most people bluff at the very start of the round, watch out for early tricks.
  • Learn the habits and patterns of the other players around the table.
  • Usually, the most outrageous claims are true; don't be fooled.




Liar's Deck: Devil Mode
What's Different?
  • Devil mode adds a single card to the deck: The Devil Card
  • It can only be played on its own and not part of a bigger claim.
  • If the player after you calls you out for bluffing and the card is revealed, everyone else has to play Russian Roulette.



Tips:
  • If you're planning to throw the card, try to act suspicious to make the next player call out your bluff.
  • Players in this mode will usually try to put down one card to make others think it's the devil and not accuse them of lying.



Liar's Deck: Chaos Mode
What's Different?
The chaos mode adds two new cards: Master and Chaos

The deck now contains 12 cards:
  • 5 Kings
  • 5 Queens
  • 1 Master
  • 1 Chaos
  • Master Card: If revealed, only the player who threw it gets to choose someone to shoot.
  • Chaos Card: If revealed, everyone points their guns at a person of their choice and pulls the trigger.
It also changes some mechanics of the basic mode:
  • Each player starts with 3 cards instead of 5.
  • Can only play 1 card per turn.
  • When you expose a bluff, you choose who to shoot.
  • You can also shoot dead players.



Tips:
  • It's best to use the chaos card when you're losing to change the tide of the battle.
  • Try to keep the master card until the end or when you think your gun has a higher chance of going off.
  • You can form alliances in this mode by choosing who to target; pick wisely.

Liar's Dice: Basic Mode
How it Works
⚀⚁⚂⚃⚄⚅⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Each player starts with a dice cup and a total of 5 dice.

1. Making a Bid:
  • During your turn, you guess how many dice of a certain pip value (⚀ to ⚅) there are on the table across all players.
  • Every turn, the bid rises. For example, if you bid one (1x⚂), the next player has to bid two or higher (2x⚃). It doesn't have to be the same type of dice.
2. Calling a Bluff:
  • If you think the previous player’s bid is too high (a lie), call their bluff.
  • Everyone reveals their dice, and the table counts the total for the bid value:
    - If the total meets or exceeds the bid, you drink one bottle of poison.
    - If the total is less than the bid, the bidder drinks one bottle of poison.
  • Drinking 2 bottles of poison = elimination.


Tips:
  • Bidding high from the start puts pressure on the other players.
  • If your hand has no dice matching the bid and it’s unusually high, it’s worth challenging.




Liar's Dice: Traditional Mode
What's Different?
This mode adds two mechanisms to the basic mode: Spot on! and Wildcards.

1. Spot On!
If you believe the previous bid is exactly correct, you can call "Spot On!"
  • If you're correct:
    - Everyone else at the table drinks poison.
  • If you're wrong:
    - You drink poison yourself.

2. Wildcards ⚀:
  • Dice showing 1s (⚀) are wildcards and can count as any value (similar to Jokers in Liar’s Deck).
  • 1s can also be counted as their own value if bid upon.


Tips:
  • Spot on is risky but similar to the devil card in Liar's Deck; it can give you an advantage over everyone else.
  • 1s are very useful for higher bids.
