Conflicted is a game which consists of multiple decks, each deck containing 52 cards, and on each card is a question. The setting is in an environment where some catastrophic event has occurred. Could be nuclear war, World War III, horrible disease, economic collapse, but regardless of the scenario, no form of government really exists or if it does it is unable to help you. No calling 911, no cell phones, no internet. Its just yourself, maybe friends and family, and possibly a small group of people who can help you. Not necessarily Mad Max/Post Apocalyptic, but cohesive civilization with modern technology at our fingertips is essentially over.
 

Every week I will post one of the cards (selected at random), and each participant writes a response to what they would do in that situation or how they might handle it. I will let the thread run for one week, and then post a new question. Post as much as you like after giving your response. Debating and analyzing is part of the game! I won't be playing as I am the one running the game.

There are no right or wrong answers as the game is about hearing how people could navigate a stressful or perilous situation.

 

Deck 1 - Downfall: King of Clubs

 

You have diabetes and, after stretching out your insulin, you finally run out. You locate someone who could barter it with you, but they just refuse to do so time after time. To be without it would mean your death, and you have your family who depends on you. You realize robbing the man would be impossible due to the repercussions but you could assassinate him instead and get the insulin you need. Would you put your fate on another person if you were sure you would die?


The idea of war is not to die for your country, it's to make the enemy die for his.

I'm not diabetic, so I would never have this problem... but wow, my chemistry sure comes in handy real quick.

 

It's survival of the fittest, and if I had a dependence on a specific medication, I would make sure I had all I need. So, this price gouger would be my next unwilling supplier, and I would probably make stew out of him to feed all the children I had to take in.


Woke (adj.)

A state of awareness only achieved by those dumb enough

to find injustice in everything except their own behavior.
