	Kill Doctor Lucky - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Kill Doctor Lucky is a humorous board game designed by James Ernest and released in 1996 by Cheapass Games.

	Kill Doctor Lucky
		Kill Doctor Lucky is a board game which is, in concept, a sort of inverse form of Clue.
		Players compete to be the first to kill Doctor Lucky.
		Gameplay involves moving around a board, trying to move into the same room as the Doctor, and using a system of cards to attempt murder and frustrate the attempts of other players.

	The Lore Merchant: Game Reviews
		It is an expansion board for the original Save Doctor Lucky, which was itself a sequel (of sorts) to Kill Doctor Lucky (which had an expansion board of its own, based on an actual mansion).
		You could only make an attempt on the Doctor if you were in the same room with him, and no other player could "see" you commit the crime.
		Like many Cheapass games, Kill Doctor Lucky is a nice way to fill time on a Friday night if half your regular game group doesn't show up, or the movie you rented is horridly awful, or you're looking to entertain some relatives who are visiting for the weekend.

	Cheapass Games - Kill Doctor Lucky Variants
		If Dr. Lucky stumbles upon a corpse his skill rises by one point per corpse, as does his attack which is equal to his resistance.
		If one Lucky pawn lands in a room with the other Lucky pawn, they move again, even if someone was in the room (that person doesn't get an extra turn as he/she is too weirded out by seeing Lucky in two places at once).
		If Doctor Lucky makes it to this room, and is by himself, he flips the switch and a clone is produced.

	KILL DOCTOR LUCKY is a new twist on the old game
		Kill Doctor Lucky: Director's Cut is a new twist on the old favorite, including funnier Failure Cards, an extra game board, and an expanded rulebook featuring director's commentary from James Ernest.
		Trying to kill the Doctor is pretty easy, but every other player can play Failure cards to stop you.
		Doctor Lucky's luck runs out eventually, though, and you just hope you can catch him when it does.

	Kill Doctor Lucky: Director’s Cut Review -- January 7, 2005 :: d20 Magazine Rack :: Are You Game Enough?
		Killing the doctor is a deceptively difficult task.
		However, because of the way the board is constructed and because Doctor Lucky doesn’t count hallways and stairways in his movement (and players do), a player cannot perform this trick indefinitely.
		While Doctor Lucky moves in a predictable path, this rule (and the fact that players can play cards to move Doctor Lucky more rooms or even instantly transport him to a given room) means that setting up an ambush can be quite difficult, even frustrating.

		Doctor Lucky is a charismatic and well-repected philanthropist in this many-years-before prequel to Kill Doctor Lucky.
		Trying to save Doctor Lucky is pretty easy, but just like in the last game, every other player can play Failure cards to stop you.
		Save Doctor Lucky is a quirky twist on the original game with clever illustrations and a sinking ship for a board.

	Kill Doctor Lucky and Before I Kill You, Mr Bond...
		Kill Doctor Lucky meanwhile is one of those games that improves with more players.
		Dr Lucky is a daft old buffer, clearly a bit deranged, and therefore moves on a programmed route, every turn, around the thirty odd rooms visiting his guests as he goes.
		Even better is to have a couple of weapons so you can try to kill him on one turn, draw out most of the failure cards, and then get him next turn with something else before the others have had the chance to replenish.

		While we love the theme and movement system of Kill Doctor Lucky, we found its murder resolution system to be unsatisfying after a few games.
		All rules of Kill Doctor Lucky are used except for resolving murder attempts.
		A player may move any pawn except the Murderer, Dr. Lucky or a pawn that has already been moved by another player during this murder attempt (tip over each pawn as it is moved to indicate this).

		The idea behind Kill Doctor Lucky is that you're, well, trying to kill Doctor Lucky.
		In the confusion you lose sight of the Doctor and as you frantically search for him you're overcome with fondness for the old man. It soon passes, but he's long gone.
		What seemed like a good idea in the original shows (such as scanners that are as big as a backpack, nuclear-powered robots, and sexy lady crew members in mini-skirts) has turned into pure cheese in '02, which the game gleefully grabs onto.

	I suppose in the end it became "Kill Sam Miller" instead of "Kill Doctor Lucky" but what can you do?
		It was quite a rowdy bunch by the time everyone arrived, and though I had touted it as a shindig, it quickly achieved hootenanny status.
		We played a game called, "Kill Doctor Lucky" which is a bit like clue, but instead of solving the crime, you are perpetrating it.We were most crude and crass and generally intolerable while we were playing - insulting each other and every race, creed or, well, distinguishing feature, that we could think of.
		We decided that, while the object of the game was to kill Doctor Lucky, it seemed that eliminating your opponents might also help in that pursuit, so we legalized attempts on other players.

	Compare Prices and Read Reviews on Kill Doctor Lucky at Epinions.com
		The premise of KDL is deliciously evil and turns the game of Clue on its head: this is a pre-mystery game in which the object is not to discover who committed the murder, but rather to succeed in committing the murder (I did warn you that you might not consider this appropriate for the kids).
		Dr. Lucky travels through the house according to his own rules: each room is numbered and at the end of each turn, Dr. Lucky proceeds to the next sequential room (whether connected by a door or not).
		Once you attack Dr. Lucky (if you happen not to have a weapon in hand, fear not: you can always 'poke him in the eye' for a single point of damage), the other players may play special cards to deflect the damage and save Dr. Lucky.
