From BoardGameGeek

Welcome to "Cursed Gifts", a quirky card game where the goal is as amusing as it is devious: dish out "Cursed Gifts" to your pals and see them squirm! It's like a fun twist on Secret Santa where the gifts are meant to be dreadful! Get ready to unveil a side of your friends you never knew existed... it's devilishly entertaining! Each player is armed with a hand of 7 cards. Each turn, they have the chance to play up to 3 cards, but beware! Only one of these can be a "Cursed Gift", a hilarious surprise to any chosen opponent. It's a cunning game of strategic gift-giving! Watch out for the danger zone! If a player accumulates 10 points in their Cursed Area, they're out of the game. To clinch the victory, you have to be the last prankster standing. To aid you in your journey to becoming the ultimate trickster, you've got an assortment of cards at your disposal. From crafty Treacheries and robust Defenses to valuable Draws, humorously pointless Useless Gifts, and lifesaving Antidotes. "Cursed Gifts" is all about action and reaction. When you're targeted (or even when you're not), you can respond by playing defenses, bouncing back Treacheries or Cursed Gifts, guarding yourself, or even sneakily stealing cards and swapping Cursed areas. The possibilities for fun and mischief are endless in this light-hearted game. And the illustrations? They're just the icing on the cake, bringing an extra dose of humor to an already immersive game. Dive in and let the fun of "Cursed Gifts" take over! -description from designer
