But It's Just a Card Game..Right???




Illuminati is an unusual card game (not a trading card game) made by Steve Jackson Games (SJG), inspired by The Illuminatus! Trilogy by Robert Anton Wilson and Robert Shea. The game has ominous secret societies competing with each other to control the world through sinister means, including legal, illegal, and even mystical. It makes fun of conspiracy theories and also contains satirical portrayals of groups not normally associated with conspiracies (Star Trek fans, for example). It can be played by two to eight players. Depending on the number of players, a game can take between one and six hours.

One is tempted to just laugh the game off until you research a tad further and find out that Jackson's office was later raided under such questionable circumstances and many of the cards bare a rather eerie similarity to actual events.

With limited need to explain allow me to show you some cards and pictures and you can decide if this is only a game.. hm? perhaps LIFE is a game.. (oh yes, It is!)





Oh YES there is more but then.. It is ONLY A GAME RIGHT?
