The Inheritance
Death can change your life
A group of strangers arrive at a grand country estate, lured by one irresistible opportunity: to inherit a chunk of a vast fortune. The fortune belonged to a glamorous benefactor – known only as The Deceased – who has left video messages for the players from beyond the grave. To release money from The Inheritance, players must work as a team to complete a series of challenges. The better they perform, the more money is released. But The Deceased had a wicked sense of humour and one ruthless condition: only one player can claim the money gained in each challenge, so it’ s up to one of them to persuade the others that they alone deserve the cash they earnt together. This is a game of wit, willpower, persuasion and betrayal, where it’ s not about who deserves the money, but who’ s willing to outplay, out-charm and out-scheme the competition to claim it.
