Five Heads

Five prisoners each have a visible-to-others card on their forehead. Across three rounds, they logically deduce and rank their cards from lowest to highest. On the final round, each guesses their exact card, using every prior guess as a clue. A single mistake can doom them—can you solve it?

About the Game

In Five Heads, five prisoners sit around a table, each with a card on their forehead—visible to everyone but themselves. In the first two rounds, they must figure out where they rank from lowest to highest, using logic, deduction, and psychology. In the final round, each player takes a leap of faith, guessing their exact card. Every guess is a clue, every mistake a setback—can you crack the code?

THE RUN

The Run is a high-stakes gauntlet of logic and teamwork. You and your team of five must survive a series of escalating challenges, ending each level in the correct order to advance. Before moving forward, you’ll vote on a power to aid your deduction and a poison that makes the next level even tougher. With each round growing more intense, will your team adapt, or will the increasing chaos break your streak?
