2 of them should be aces (so there will be 2 cops) and 2 of them should be jacks (so there will be 2 killers). How To Playįrom the pack of cards, separate out ten cards. In our example, we'll consider a 10 player game with 2 cops/policemen and 2 killers. The killer(s) has/have the role of winking with one eye and killing the civilians or the regular players and the cop(s) has/have the role of catching the killer either winking or at least figuring out who the killer is through calculated guess work. In this game, a killer is one who gets a jack and a cop is one who gets an ace. The main aim of the game, is for the policeman or the cop to find out who the thief or the killer is and for the killer to kill all regular players or civilians before the cop catches him. Similarly for a 12-player game, 3 cops and 3 killers and so on. For an 8 player game, two policemen can be there and two killers. In a 4 player game, one will be a thief/killer and one will be a policeman or a cop. I do not recommend that you go about winking at men and women to practice for this game.Ī minimum of 4 players are required to play this game. You cannot play this game if you do not know how to wink.
