In "Alice in Borderland," the game you're referring to is likely the "Jack of Hearts" game. Here's a brief explanation of how it works:
-
Objective: Players must identify the symbol on their own collar by getting information from others, as they cannot see their own symbol.
-
Setup: Each player wears a collar with one of four symbols: heart, diamond, club, or spade. The collars are visible to everyone except the wearer.
-
Rules:
- At regular intervals, players must enter a booth and correctly state the symbol on their collar.
- If a player states the wrong symbol, their collar will explode, eliminating them from the game.
- Players can lie to each other about the symbols to deceive or manipulate.
-
Challenge: Trust is a crucial element because players rely on others to tell them the truth about their symbol. Deception and alliances play significant roles in the strategy.
-
Endgame: The game ends when all players have successfully identified their symbols, or when only one player remains.
The psychological aspect of trust and deception makes this game particularly intense and suspenseful.
