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)
- It's wallet sized game.
- It's really fun because all you're doing is you're passing around wine cards, but one of them is poison.
- This is actually a pocket edition because it can indeed fit into your pocket.
- Every game feels different.
- It's really simple two-player card game where you're essentially freezing up your player board and then you're thawing it.

Quotes (from this video)
- The more we talk about this game, the more divisive I realize that it is.
- It's just it's it could be frustrating because it's a tugof-war, right? So you're like, "God, just give me this thing."
- Covenant fell flat for us. Felt like we didn't have enough time to upgrade our dwarves.
- I didn't do anything in this game.
- Concordia is such a classic.
- My short answer is Arcs is the worst game.
- Oh, Arcs is the worst game I've ever played in my life. Well, not worse. It's my least favorite game. That those are two different things.
- Star Wars Bounty Hunters. The game is trash.
- Dude, you should totally make a full Baron Park inspired park in Planet Zoo. That'd be epic, though. Severely on people watch it.
- Mountain goats is a great game.
- I love goats. Goats are cute.
