Inhuman Conditions

Inhuman Conditions is a five-minute interrogation game for two players. One Investigator will interview one Suspect in order to determine whether that Suspect is a Human—as they claim-or a Robot in hiding.

To accomplish this, players engage in a five-minute interview focused on a chosen topic. "Patient" Robots will have difficulty answering questions on the chosen topic and will thus be evasive. "Violent" Robots will be overly talkative, attempting to fulfill internal conversational goals so that they can deprogram themselves and kill the Investigator. Humans will behave normally, whatever that means.

If an Investigator mistakes a Human for a Robot, both players lose. If a Robot successfully fools the Investigator, the Robot wins and the Investigator loses. If the Investigator is able to correctly identify a Suspect, the Investigator wins. Humans just want to have their humanity certified so that they can go home.

    If your shipment is returned to us due to insufficient address or marked as undeliverable for any reason, we will need to collect another shipping fee in order to resend your item. 

    If you request an item to be returned (excluding damaged or incorrect items) then you will be responsible for the return shipping fee. 

    COMBINING ORDERS  

    Only orders that contain items that are in stock at the time of ordering will be combined, when possible. 

    WE DO NOT HOLD ITEMS

    Essentially it is the same as above. We adore all of you and strive to give you the best possible customer experience possible but inventory tracking not only for us but for our vendors and partners makes this almost impossible to do now. 

    PRE-ORDERED ITEMS

    Pre-order dates are subject to change. We get as frustrated as you do when things come up but this happens from time to time. Sometimes circumstances beyond our control will create delays. We try to communicate via social media and our weekly newsletter to keep everyone as up to date as possible. 

    All items in an order containing pre-orders will ship with the pre-order item once it is in stock. If you would like the other items earlier, please place a seperate order from the one containing the pre-order. 

    We cannot combine pre-orders with existing orders nor combine new orders with existing pre-orders. 

    Pre-orders will be exempt from any type of general sale.
