The Killer

The Killer

And so to the game, designed to cater for the killer instinct in all of us (except me. because I'm a victim).

Everyone entering the game is either a hunter or victim. Each killer will receive a letter saying he or she has been chosen for this role and naming the victim without any other clue on who he or she is or may be found.

Each victim will simply be told he is a victim without any clue on who is hunting.

Four days will be allowed to devise and execute "a technically-feasible kill.'' Success will win one point. "A technically-brilliant kill" will earn ten points.

If the victim is able to first kill the hunter, the hunter loses one point and the victim wins one. If any "innocent bystander" is killed by the method chosen the hunter loses two points.
