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: Six of Clubs

One of your friends approached you and confessed to you that he secretly plans to kill another of your friends. He is so driven towards this that he swears he will also take out anyone who gets in the way of his task. You like them both equally, and to help one would be betraying the other. When you pressed to find his reasons for murder, he remained silent. How would you handle this situation and why?

 

 


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

I don't have too many people that I can call "friends". I know many, but they are all kept at a specific distance. I do like some more than others. I rely, and depend, on no one. I only tell my soul to my wife. I only trust her completely... so I find it very hard to believe that anyone would confess to me anything like this. Maybe under extreme circumstances, such as this scenario, I would be open to change... but not likely. This person will not tell me why he will be doing the deed. If the person he intends to kill is a good person, and I'm an excellent judge of character... I will intercede. The better man will live.

Fair thought... but if you've been following the card game, there are no "authorities" around to inform.

Okay... kill the friend, without explanation his action nulls the friendship and negates consideration for his action.
