About the game

What is Get Lucky?

Welcome to the J. Robert Lucky mansion...again. Once more, you and a collection of similarly evil-minded people have gathered for a seemingly innocuous dinner party. It will be an evening of stimulating conversation, quiet music, and desperate murder attempts. But this time, it's a card game. Get Lucky is the card game adaptation of the classic board game Kill Doctor Lucky. Players control multiple house guests, each with some very good reason to take the old man out — but he's not called "Doctor Lucky" for nothing. He's more resilient than a bad habit and twice as irritating. Take heart; his famous luck won't last forever! Gather around the card table and see who can Get Lucky!
