Charming little game about execution
By Mojo Jojo
This is a fun game. I'm on my third set. (Don't think the game is too delicate. One time I ruined it by getting some cards stuck in some sticky stuff at Denny's, and the second set I misplaced.)Like most my favorite card games, it's a breeze to learn. Every day, twelve "nobles" are lined up. In turns, players play an action card and then collect the noble at the front of the line. After three days, the player with the most prestigious collection of heads wins the game.Action cards are played to alter the point value of cards in your score pile or change the order of the line. And many nobles have special game effects when collected. There's also innocent nobles who are worth negative points if you collect them. In other words, there's a heck of a lot of strategy going on, and the game plays fast enough that it's never boring. Everyone I've ever played this game with has enjoyed it.A nice bonus is the quality of the cards, both in durability and artwork presentation. The cartoonish illustrations have a lot of life to them.

A fairly decent game
By Alain Lance
I was looking for a good game to play with my girlfriend on quiet nights, and Guillotine will do the trick.It is not necessarly an "exciting" or party game, but for a quiet evening, it's pretty good. I would definitely recommend it to families with children 8 and up.Rules are easy to understand.It got the job done for me, for the "fun" I was expecting from it!Alain

By LaughingLion
Overall one of the most fun games i've ever owned. Easy to learn, always funny and never dull. You're playing at the French Revolution and trying to beat your opponents by strategically playing your cards.Fun for all.
