THE ORIGINAL GAME IS FOR 2-6 PLAYERS. IT CAN BE PLAYED WITH THE FOLLOWING EXPANSION PACKS:

THE "F**KING RANDOM", THE "WE TOOK IT TOO FAR", THE "NSFW" AND THE "WELL THAT'S EMBARRASSING"

THE COUPLES EDITION IS 2 PLAYERS ONLY. IT CAN BE PLAYED WITH THE ORIGINAL GAME AND ALL EXPANSION PACKS ASSUMING YOU'RE PLAYING WITH 2 PEOPLE ONLY.

THE FINAL EXPANSION PACK WHICH IS ONLY AVAILBLE TO SELECT PLAYERS, IS FOR 2 PLAYERS ONLY, AND CAN BE PLAYED WITH THE COUPLES EDITION ONLY. IT IS NOT RECOMMENDED TO BE COMBINED WITH THE ORIGINAL GAME UNLESS PLAYING WITH AN INTIMATE PARTNER... OR PARTNERS.

HOW TO PLAY

THE RULES ARE SIMPLE; OPEN THE GAME, SHUFFLE THE CARDS AND PLAY. ALL THE INSTRUCTIONS ARE IN THE PACK. IF YOU'RE THE TYPE TO IGNORE THE RULES AND HOW TO PLAY THEN YOU'RE AN AWFUL PERSON! NOT REALLY, BUT STILL, LET'S SHOW SOME RESPECT YEAH? THIS GAME IS ABOUT BONDING, BUILDING, HAVING A LAUGH AND CONSENT. WE HAVE A FEW DIFFERENT IDEAS ON HOW TO WIN, AND IN THE COUPLES EDITION, IDEAS ON HOW TO PENALISE. THE GAME MAY BE CALLED SHOT DODGE, BUT MAYBE, JUST MAYBE, INSTEAD OF AVOIDING SHOTS, YOU AVOID SPANKS, SLAPS OR WHIPPING. WE DON'T KNOW IF YOU'RE VANILLA OR KINKY DO WE?

WHY THIS GAME EXISTS

A LITTLE BIT ABOUT WHY THIS GAME EXISTS: THE ULTIMATE AIM OF SHOT DODGE, IS FOR YOU TO BUILD TRUST IN YOUR PARTNER, YOUR FRIENDS, ETC. IT'S TO HELP YOU OPEN UP, EXPERIMENT, COME OUT OF YOUR SHELL. IT WAS CREATED OUT OF EXPERIENCE. THE CREATOR(S) OF THIS GAME SUFFER FROM MENTAL HEALTH ISSUES. ME? THE ONE WRITING THIS, I SUFFER WITH JEALOUSY AND TRUST ISSUES, AND PERSONALLY, FORCING ME INTO DIFFERENT, UNIQUE AND MAYBE UNCOMFORTABLE SITUATIONS HAS DONE ME A WORLD OF GOOD! WE'RE NOT JUST DIRTY MINDED, WE'RE BROKEN, WE'RE FUN AND WE'RE TRYING TO HELP OURSELVES AS WELL AS OTHERS. AND EVENTUALLY, IF AND WHEN THIS GAME MAKES IT INTO MARKET, WE WILL DONATE PROFITS TO MENTAL HEALTH CHARITIES. BECAUSE STILL, TODAY, THERE ISN'T ENOUGH FREE HELP FOR OUR HEADS. THE STIGMA MAY BE GONE, BUT THE HELP IS STILL NOT THERE AND THAT NEEDS TO CHANGE. SO IN THE MEANTIME, GET SOCIABLE, GET KINKY AND HAVE SOME FUN. IT'S EXACTLY WHAT THE "GAME MASTER" ORDERED!
