Hell of A Game Rules
A HELL OF A GAME
READ THE RULES ALL THE WAY THROUGH CAREFULLY BEFORE STARTING
Goal of the Game: Travel through Dante’s depiction of Hell, completing challenges and doing
your best to avoid Sin. Use Helper cards to eliminate your Sin Cards to reach Satan and escape
by climbing down his flank.
2-6 players
Turn play:
Role the two d-12 and move along the spaces. Whatever space you land on either draw the card
associated with it, or do nothing if the space is blank.
If you have to draw a card, that card needs to be played immediately.
Movement:
Move your piece according to the number you rolled. If your movement is determined by a card
do not draw another card at the end of that movement.
Sin deck:
When you land on a Red Sin space, you must draw one Sin card from the deck that has the word
“SIN” on it. Have the card’s punishment read by the player to your left, then act it out. If it is a
single turn effect, do it immediately after you draw the card. If it is a long term effect, be sure to
enact it each turn, starting on the turn you drew it. Do not discard. Sin cards can only be removed
with Helper cards. When a Sin card is removed, put it in a discard pile. if you discard a Sin card
right after you receive it, you still take the debuff unless the card specifically says the effect lasts
until the card is removed.
Helper deck :
Draw from the “HELPER” deck when you land on a Blue space. Read out the bonus you get
yourself. If it is a one turn effect, enact it immediately. If it is a long term effect, enact it each
turn. Do not Discard. Helper cards can be sacrificed to remove Sin Cards.When you sacrifice a
Helper card, place it in a discard pile. If you get a card that allows you to remove more than one
Sin card, and you do not have that many Sin cards, you cannot save the effect for later. The card
can still be sacrificed to eliminate one Sin card.
Challenge deck:
Draw a card when you land on a Gold space from the “CHALLENGE” deck, and have it read to
you by the player to your left. Either answer the question or complete the challenge. Follow the
card instructions for consequences of success/ failures. If the card does not provide
consequences, use the following: Failure = Lose a turn, Success= Gain a Helper Card.
If a challenge says that a player who loses must repeat the challenge, that means on the next
challenge space they land on they must use the same Challenge card. This cycle only applies to
the first player that lost. Discard after the second use. When answering trivia, only the first or last
name needs to be said to get a correct answer.
