Skybound Tabletop has announced the forthcoming retail release of the Trial By Trolley Expansion, titled Travel by Trolley. This vacation-themed pack for the twisted Cyanide & Happiness party game, designed by Scott Houser and published by Skybound Tabletop, is set to hit stores nationwide on June 28th, 2023, with a suggested retail price of $17.99. Get ready for a summer filled with warm weather, moral dilemmas, and trolley carnage!
Experience the Moral Dilemmas and Trolley Carnage
In Trial by Trolley, players engage in a thrilling and morally challenging gameplay experience. One player assumes the role of the trolley operator and faces the difficult decision of where to direct a murderous, out-of-control trolley. Meanwhile, all other players at the table play cards and engage in persuasive arguments, hoping to convince the operator to spare their lives while condemning everyone on the opposing track to a gruesome death-by-trolley. It’s a game of intense strategy and manipulation, where moral choices collide with self-preservation.
Expanding the Vacation-Themed Fun
The Trial By Trolley Vacation Expansion adds an exciting twist to the original game, incorporating 200 new tracks and modifiers inspired by vacation destinations from around the world. Players will encounter scenarios and obstacles reminiscent of the petty frustrations we all face when traveling, adding an extra layer of hilarity and unpredictability to the game. Whether you’re navigating through an airport security checkpoint or braving the chaos of a crowded tourist attraction, this expansion promises to deliver an entertaining and twisted gameplay experience.
Cyanide & Happiness: A Webcomic Sensation
The Trial By Trolley game is based on the wildly popular Cyanide & Happiness webcomic, created by Rob DenBleyker, Kris Wilson, Dave McElfatrick, and Matt Melvin. Known for their irreverent humor and often controversial content, Cyanide & Happiness has amassed a massive following. In June 2019, the creators launched a highly successful Kickstarter campaign in partnership with Skybound for Trial By Trolley, raising an impressive $3.5 million. With their unique brand of comedy and entertainment, Cyanide & Happiness continues to captivate audiences, both through their webcomics and their foray into the tabletop gaming realm.
