Wamstrike, a card game for 1-4 players
Rules of Play
MINIMUM AGE: This card game is meant only for adult players.
Hello, player, and welcome to Wamstrike – the messy card game! Over the course of the game, you, and perhaps also your friends, will gradually replace your clothes with food and slime. While you may play Wamstrike on your own against a virtual opponent, it is recommended to play against friends, if only just to see if you can get them to suffer more mess than they put on you! Wamstrike is a game of chance, strategy and with three or more players, even diplomacy! But don’t worry, it’s easy to learn – let’s begin!
Number of players: 1 – 4 (up to 8 with variants)
Expected playtime: 1 – 2 hours (excluding setup time)
Glossary
In this rulebook, the following terms will be used:
- boy and girl refer to a player of the appropriate sex; the term player is used if the player’s sex doesn’t matter
- underwear refers to panties or equivalent clothing, for both sexes
- a cup refers to a little substance, up to 300mL of volume
- a jug refers to a greater amount of substance, up to 1000mL of volume
- a bucketful refers to a massive amount of substance, up to 8000mL of volume
- to strip down is to choose an item of clothing you wear and to remove it; it does not mean to disrobe completely
- to expose a part of your body is to move the clothing you wear in such a way that every player may see fully the skin of the part of your body; when you’re instructed to expose a part of your body, you may optionally clear away any mess obscuring it
- in this rulebook, the pronoun she is also used to refer to a player whose sex is not specified
Setting up
Before you begin playing, you must set up some things first. All players should cooperate here and help with the preparation:
- Dress appropriately. Each player must wear appropriate clothing. Boys wear socks, underwear, a lower-body clothing item, and a T-shirt. Each of these counts as a single item of clothing. Girls wear the same, except that in addition, they also wear a bra.
- Optional variant: Gender equality. If you use this variant, girls cannot wear socks.
- Prepare the deck. Remove from the deck all cards that you don’t want to play with. You will probably want to remove any cards for which you don’t have material (e.g. bondage cards if you don’t have a rope), cards that don’t have effects that you find interesting (e.g. feet cards if no player has a relevant kink) or cards which step outside of your social contract (e.g. kiss cards if you don’t want to kiss each other). When this is done, shuffle the deck and put it in reach of all players.
- Ready props and material. Prepare both props and substance material in advance and make it available in the room where you’re playing. The room will certainly become very messy, it is recommended you play in a bathroom or equivalent, and that you take other precautions.
- Choose variants. Choose which optional variants of this game you’ll want to play with. A long list of optional variants is presented further down in these rules.
- Draw. To begin the game, each player draws 2 cards from the top of the deck and then the first player begins their turn. The youngest girl goes first; if there are no girls, then then the youngest boy goes first.
Object of the game
You win the game if all other players have been eliminated (in solo play, there is a different win condition, see further down). A player is eliminated in any of the following cases:
- Concession. A player may concede at any time. A player may concede even between the time they’re chosen as the target of a card and the time the card’s effects are performed: in this case, the card’s effects on this player are ignored – players are forbidden from touching or putting mess on a player who has conceded without the player’s consent. A player who concedes is immediately eliminated.
- Effect. A card may say that a player is eliminated. For example, the card Get Down or Get Out reads “The chosen player exposes her bum and lies does on the floor. Apply two pies to her bum in any way you want, then she may replace her clothing. If the player utters a sound during the execution of this effect, eliminate her.” If the player squeaks as you place the pie on her bum, she will be eliminated from the game.
- Accumulate 10 victim points. Many cards have a number printed on them in the top right corner. This means that the player you choose as the target of the card gets an appropriate number of victim point cards and places them in front of herself. If a player accumulates ten of these cards, she is eliminated from the game.
- Optional Variant: No victim points. In this variant, ignore any instructions related to victim points. Players can’t be eliminated by having victim points. This variant leads to more laid-back games where the victory or defeat of players is determined more or less by chance.
- Optional Variant: Strip when naked. In this variant, if a player is instructed to strip down, but she is already completely naked, eliminate her. If you don’t use this variant, the instruction to strip when you’re already naked is simply ignored.
- Optional Variant: Turn limit. In this variant, after a specified number of turns (e.g. after each player plays five cards), the game ends without a winner.
A player who is eliminated strips down completely – i.e. removes all of her remaining clothing – but remains in the room until the game ends.
Taking turns
Players take turns in clockwise order. During her turn, a player:
- First, chooses and plays one of the two cards in her hand. The card is revealed to all players. If the card’s instructions require a “chosen player”, the player who played the card chooses this target. Then she follows the card’s instructions.
- Second, the player may discard or keep the other card in her hand.
- In any case, third, the player draws cards from the deck until she has two cards in her hand again. Based on her discard-or-keep decision, this will mean either drawing one or drawing two cards.
Solo Play
When playing alone, play as normal with the following cave-ats:
- Before the game, remove from the deck all cards that don’t make sense when there’s only one player. For example, a card that instructs you to kiss a player of the opposite gender doesn’t make sense anymore, while a card that says that you place eggs in the chosen player’s undies still works.
- When you play a card, the words “the chosen player” always refer to you.
- To win the game, you must remain in the game (not eliminated) for ten turns.
- You can lose the game by being eliminated, in all the usual ways. It is recommended that you play with victim points and with the “strip when naked” option.
Example Cards
- Pie in the Face. Throw any pie into a player’s face.
- Pie Sandwich. Place a pie onto each cheek of the chosen player. Both pies must be of the same kind.
- Crotch Pie. Place any pie onto the crotch of the chosen player. If she still has underwear, leave the pie inside afterwards.
- Replacement Bra. The chosen girl strips down her bra. If she doesn’t have it anymore, place a pie onto each of her breasts instead.
- I Need It More. The chosen player strips down and you may put the stripped clothing on.
- Save or Soil. Choose a player and an item of clothing she wears. The player may strip down that item. If she doesn’t, cover it with mud.
- Pristine Skin. The chosen player strips down all clothing they have that’s signficantly covered with mess (you decide what’s significant mess).
- Bomb Underwear. Put a few eggs into the underwear of the chosen player. If the chosen player doesn’t wear underwear anymore, you may pick any discarded underwear, and the player must put it on first.
- Cake Throw. Throw a cake at a player’s face from a distance of at least five feet. If you miss, that player must pick up the cake and place it under your clothing (or on your skin if you have no clothing left).
- Leftovers. Place spaghetti or other kind of pasta under the clothes of the chosen player, or rub it into her hair.
- Quicksand Trap. Place this card face down. The next time a player chooses you as a target, first strip down any socks or lower-body clothing they have, cover their legs with mud, and bind them together over the knee level for one round of play.
- Love Trap. Place this card face down. Whenever a player chooses you as a target while this is face down, you may reveal this card and kiss them for up to one minute. If you do, then you may apply the effects of that player’s card on her, rather than the other way around.
- Recovery Trap. Place this card face down. The next time you are chosen as a target, after that card has its effects, you may immediately shower yourself down with water, then strip down.
- Corrosive Trap. Place this card face down. The next time a player chooses you a target, first she strips down, then she strips down again.
- Custard Filling. Apply a jug of custard in any way you want onto the chosen player.
- Flour Bag. Empty a bag of flour in any way you want onto the chosen player.
- Panties Switch. Choose two players who still have underwear. They each strip it down and you place a cup of any mess into each piece of underwear, then each chosen player puts on the underwear of the other player.
- Mud Storm. Apply a jug of mud onto each other player in any way you want, then choose a player and that player must empty a jug of mud under your clothes.
- Group Gunge Tank. All other players huddle together, then you upend two bucketfuls of slime over them.
- Duo. Choose a boy and a girl (you may choose yourself). They kiss each other. Then, for the rest of the game, whenever the boy strips down, the girl must strip down as well; and whenever the girl receives mess on her body, she may apply the same amount of mess onto the boy’s body in the same way. This effect ends when either is eliminated.
These prepared cards are merely examples – you may create new cards yourself following the templating of these ones.
Optional Variants
- Variant: Clothing Classes. In this variant, players have various options of clothing to start the game with. Based on their choices, they may receive in-game advantages or disadvantages to offset the different number of articles of clothing.
- Girl’s Uniform. Socks, underwear, a bra (if you are a girl), a skirt, a shirt and a jacket. As a disadvantage, you receive an extra victim point each time you play a card.
- Greatarmor. Socks, underwear, a bra (if you are a girl), a long-sleeved T-shirt, long lower-body clothing, a headband, and a sweater. As a disadvantage, whenever you strip down an article of clothing, the player who caused you to take it off may put it on. Any mess covering the clothing will remain on it.
- Swimsuit. Underwear, a bra (if you are a girl). At the beginning of each of your turns, you may upend a bucketful of water over your body to clean yourself. In addition, you may upend up to a bucketful of water over the body of any other player at the same time.
- Dryad. You begin the game naked, and you can’t put on any clothing during the game. In addition, before the game starts, you must bodypaint your body into a dark color of your choice. If a card instructs you to strip down, instead you may choose any other player and any of their remaining items of clothing and remove it from them. In addition, whenever a player is eliminated but you’re still in the game, you may apply any kind of messy punishment on her.
- Variant: Duo Players. In this variant, teams of two players play against each other. This way, there may be up to 4 teams, i.e. 8 players. Each team has only 2 cards, not four, and its members must agree on which card they want to play. Any effects of the cards are applied to both players on the team. For example, if a card instructs you to “Sandwich the chosen player’s head between two pies, then that player strips down.”, then you choose a team, not a player, and use pies on both members of the team, and both members of the team lose an article of clothing.
- Variant: Forfeits. You may find it more fun to assign forfeits as punishments to either the player who is eliminated first, or to all players except for the winner. Players have to agree to forfeits beforehand, and once they agree, they cannot evade forfeits by conceding the game. Some example forfeits are:
- Remain Dirty. You must remain as you are, uncleaned, for four hours after the end of the game.
- Remain Nude. You must strip down fully and remain thus for four hours after the end of the game.
- Accept Punishment. At the end of the game, each other player may apply any kind of messy punishment on you.
- Slave. For the hour following the end of the game, you are blindfolded and you must follow the commands of each player who scored better than you.
- Serve Food. At the end of the game, you must prepare food for other players to eat. It is their choice whether they want to consume it or apply it on you.
- Variant: Permit Refusal to Act. In this variant, when a player is instructed to do something by a card, they may refuse it and strip down instead (as long as they still have clothing to remove). For example, if a card says “Cover your belly with juice, and the chosen player must lick it off,” the chosen player could refuse to do that by taking the minor forfeit instead.
- Variant: Permit Refusal to Suffer. As above, except that the player can also strip down to prevent an instruction from affecting her, even if it requires no action on her part. For example, if a card says “Upend a bucketful of slime over the chosen player’s head,” the player may strip down. If she does, no slime will be put over her.
- Variant: Ganging Up. In this variant rule, if you choose as a target of your card the same player that was the target of the previous card, the chosen player gets an extra victim point. This variant rule changes the game dynamic a little – you will find everyone will tend to “focus fire”, so to speak, on a single player until they are eliminated. Such games usually don’t last as long. Be aware that the first victim of ganging up may feel hurt by this: be sure to only use this variant rule if you are good friends.
- Variant: Spreading It Out. In this variant rule, you cannot choose as a target of your card the same player that was the target of the previous card. This will lead to a fairer distribution of mess and punishment among the group. You can expect that you will all be similarly naked and messy at all points during the game.
- Variant: Gender equality 2. In this variant rule, if a card refers specifically to a girl or a boy, ignore that and substitute the word “player” instead. For example, if a card instructs you to “Choose and kiss a girl.” you may instead choose a boy. Where a card refers to a girl’s breasts, the player who played the card will substitute either the word “crotch” or “chest”, as she prefers.
