Frequently Asked Questions

Why a game about death? Because it happens to us all eventually, and this is one way to talk about it that’s fun, lively, and informative.

Whose idea was this? That would be Kimberley and James. She’s an artist and licensed grief and trauma therapist, he’s a teacher, historian, and musician.

How old should players be? Recommended for 13+ and up (it’s great for mature teenagers). It’s a party game, so think who you’d invite to a party.

How long does it take to learn and play? It’s quick to pick up (we fitted all the rules on to one card) and about 45-90 minutes to play. Find out more on the rules page.

What’s in the box? Our first game, Morbid Curiosity is 162 cards, plus the rules card. Our second game, Memento Mori is 72 new discussion cards. It can be played as part of the original game or as it’s own stand alone conversation driver.

I’ve played it and loved it. Are you planning more decks? Yes! We’ve already launched our second deck, Memento Mori (we just couldn't stop talking about death), and are about to release our second trivia deck Postmortem. More fun is in the works.

How will I know when new items are released? Follow us on Facebook and Twitter for the announcements.

Why is shipping so high? The main deck weighs just under 1 pound. Literally, 12 ounces without packaging. Since we’re small, we don’t get the significantly discounted rates that big box companies do. Please know, we don't make any profit off shipping.

How long will it take to receive my game? Once we get the order, we are generally able to box it able to put it in the mail the next day. From there, the clock starts ticking with whichever shipping service (e.g. USPS, UPS) you chose. Please note, we don’t work weekends, and we’ll put up a notice if we’re off on vacation.

Will you be offering this through stores? Where can I buy this!?! Currently, Morbid Curiosity is available through our website store and a select stores across the country.

Why don’t you offer this through Amazon? Sadly, amazon was not a fit for us. In addition, we want our morbid family of sellers to thrive and not have to compete with Amazon sales. We support small business.

Are you planning any other languages than the American English version? We’d love to, and as soon as translations are available we’ll let you know.

Who is your illustrator? The amazing Prem Krishnan drew our Death's-Head Hawk Moth and the Skull with Roses. They are gorgeous, yes?!

Who printed this amazing game? Panda Game Manufacturing.

I have a question I think would be great on a card, can I email it to you? We’re really glad you have questions – after all, we want the game to spark your lively curiosity about death. Unfortunately, we can’t accept submissions for cards - at this time.

I want to carry your deck in my store. How can we make that happen? We’re definitely looking for partners that can represent the game. Please note, we do not sell the game on commission and we have a minimum order of 20. Please visit our wholesale page for more information. 

I am a non-profit and would love to buy multiple copies for an upcoming death focused event. Is that possible? Yes. Please email us.
