As someone "victimized" by the infamous BlockBot for having an opinion that doesn't fall lockstep with the SJW narrative on Twitter/Tumblr/etc., I laughed my hairy ass off - shortly after checking my privilege of course! I can't wait to whip this out at my local Freethought Society meet-up for the lulz that shall surely ensue. Because Patriarchy.

Well done, Postmortem Studios. You never fail to deliver an excellent product.

The "game", if you call a single column of poorly edited text with no spacing a "game", is so assaulting to any pretense of playability or communal gaming I'm hesitant to assign it any rating at all.

This thing so completely defies comprehension that after three read-throughs I still can't quite understand its purpose. The goal seems to be less about playing with friends and more about lampooning Internet critics. Was this about making a game at all? I still don't know.

You are assigned cards that correspond to stereotypes (most of them quite vicious) and are instructed to argue over which one is most applicable to you in order to achieve a status of victimhood; like Apples to Apples, but replace the subject cards with such lovely titles as "Ambiguous Brown Person" or "Otherkin".

Direct your attention elsewhere. This is an embarrassing and forgetful product that appears to be motivated more by spite than anything else.

I\'m not entirely sure what you\'re looking at. The instructions have two columns of text, with spacing. Yes, it\'s a playable game (I suggest playing it) and yes it\'s also about lampooning not critics, but certain wild and woolly corners of the internet (like social justice Tumblr). There\'s two wings to the joke here, one the extreme social justice people and their \'games\' of oppression olympics, but also the nasty views of people on the opposite extreme. If you didn\'t get it, that\'s fine.
