Survival of the Witless (1997)

About this game

A wild, no holds barred game of tenure politics. Knowledge is nothing. Tenure is everything! It's the brutal world of higher education - the misery of sweltering in the rarefied air of that medieval ritual; surviving the politically correct minefield to achieve the ultimate in bourgeois living - Tenure. Face incomprehensible odds in this tongue in cheek, knife in the back card game of Antisocial Darwinism!

Does it fit your group?

• Group size. Works with 3 to 8.
• Rules load. At 1.7/5 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.
