Description
In the first course, it was definitely in the soup. After that, it's not as clear. Perhaps in the Béarnaise sauce?
Regardless, two things are abundantly clear: someone is poisoning the guests at this party, and the wine that is being poured may be the last you ever taste.
In Vino Morte is a tiny little bluffing/deduction game.
In the game, the dealer will choose and distribute wine/poison cards and each player has an opportunity to keep theirs and drink it, or swap with another player. It's quick, fun and sneaky and works with a large group.

Quotes (from this video)
- I have found that hosting board game nights is an excellent way to get non-board gamers into the hobby, because after they've played some of these games with you, they immediately say 'I need to go get this game, I love this game, can't believe I've never heard of it'
- Our hobby is terrible at marketing itself to people outside of the hobby. Yeah once you get in, yeah you're golden.
- There are so many board gamers out there than I think any of us even know, and even more people who are just adjacent to the hobby.
- It's definitely not going to be for everyone, especially the charades part
- The game takes a backseat to the discussion between rounds
- You're actually better at this game if you can't draw well. The worse you draw, the more fun it is.
- It's just been something that's been on my mind a lot because I've been hosting some game nights at my workplace
- I'm the fun police, but in the opposite way - I want to bring the fun
