Flash Friday! In Murder, don't get caught killing the King, then catch others trying to usurp your reign- or get usurped and get revenge! Red Light Green Light was never played with higher stakes!

Protip: once King, detecting or failing to detect the different types of usurpers yields different results.

I'm confused, because I get a Flash menu when I right-click the game.

This is perfect for my mixture of completionist-paranoia and nonexistent attention span because I think I've managed to see all possibilities in just a few rounds.

Second Protip: what makes you think they're all usurpers?

The regicide tag on this post makes me smile.

It's pretty cute. Not sure I have the fortitude to keep playing it to it's conclusion, assuming there is one, though.

I believe the case can be made that they are all trying to usurp something.

You don't have to "catch" every person, some of them are just being nice.

One thing I like is this is a mechanic that's previously been used mostly for kissing games and farting games, but adds a new twist on it by getting you to switch roles.

And it's a goofy cartoon but it also works as an illustration of fear turning someone into a tyrant.

I mean the mechanic of doing something surreptitiously and trying not to be noticed.

Kissing Game
Farting Game

I specifically avoided saying "kissing and farting games" so you wouldn't think it's at the same time.
