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: Nine of Hearts
You've managed to keep your family safe for the past two months, but your luck has run out. Your house has just been invaded by five radical jihadists. The men have tied you and your family up and looted your home of all your food and supplies. Before they leave, they noticed the religious paintings on your wall. While being held at gunpoint, one of the men said that if you deny your faith, he will spare your lives. But if you do not, he will kill you and take your family. Would you defend your faith and your god? Or would you deny your god in hopes of saving your family?
