About this game
Met the end of their lives, now all of the players are standing before the Gates of Heaven, hoping to win their way inside. A neatly-dressed old man appears before them and says, ”Heaven is nearly full! Unfortunately, there is not enough room for all of you. Discuss with each other and decide which of you shall not enter paradise.” Heaven, Here I Come is an alignment game with deduction and bluffing. Players are secretly divided into two teams, the Sinner team and the Scapegoat team. Players will not usually know which team they are on at the beginning of the game. Each team may consist of one or more players. Try to determine which team you are on, keep it secret, and then figure out which team others are on. Eventually, someone will make an accusation and then the real fun begins. —description from the publisher
Does it fit your group?
- Group size. Works with 5 to 10.
- Rules load. At 1.5/5 this is a light game — explain it in a few minutes, good for a table that has not played much.
- Age. The publisher suggests 12 and up. That rates the rules rather than the artwork, so judge the box yourself for younger players.
