Would you survive the King’s Game?

Whoops, You’re an Early Casualty

Sorry, champ, but you’re probably not even going to make it through the night. Whether because of disinterest, disbelief, or an early night, you’re out of the game pretty much just as it starts. Then again, at least the nastiness is over early?

Mastered By the Game

Yikes. Uh. Okay. You’re actually kind of enjoying yourself. Got some sort of vendetta to enact? It might be fun to get your aggression out this way, but the bridges you’re burning aren’t doing you any favors. You may play like a pro for now, but it’s very unlikely you’re going to make it to the end without ticking someone off on exactly the wrong day.

Would you survive the King's Game?

Congratulations! Kind of.

All your friends are dead and everything is terrible, but hey! At least you survived! Your mix of common sense, intelligence, and willingness to take risks for your friends made you the ultimate winner of the Game.
