# Divorce-Mimicking Games This Two-Player Card Game Involves Dividing Your Assets Regardless of Cost By Alyson Wyers | Published 2014-09-03 | Life-Stages Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/twoplayer-card-game References: [kickstarter](https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1902488383/divorce-the-game) This highly competitive two-player card game takes a sad event and turns it into light hearted fun. Divorce! The Game is currently seeking finances via crowdfunding platform Kickstarter. The objective is to divide your assets -- at any cost. According to the Kickstarter project's description, it "takes all the fun of getting divorced and turns it into an easy-to-play two-player card game." Divorce! The Game consists of a deck of cards, which represent your assets. The players take turns drawing two cards at a time, keeping one and giving the other to his or her opponent or 'ex.' This process is designed to copy real-life divorce mediation, as it forces you to make difficult decisions and strategize. Playing dirty (getting lawyers to steal, plant evidence or buy bribes) is also encouraged. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 0.5/10 - Popularity: 2% | Activity: 4% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 90% men, 10% women - Primary generations: Millennial - Top markets: North America, Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Life-Stages](https://www.trendhunter.com/life-stages) > [Toys](https://www.trendhunter.com/toys) ## Key Themes ### What's Driving This Trend - **Cards as Divorce Mediator:** Developing similar games based on sensitive topics can provide a fun way of dealing with them. - **Gamification of Painful Experiences:** Creating games that provide people with a way to cope with difficult experiences can lead to innovative solutions. - **Redefining Social Norms Through Play:** Designing games that challenge conventions and social norms can pave the way for progressive thinking. ### Who This Affects Most - **Game Design:** Exploring the use of games for social commentary can provide a way to engage audiences and offer unique experiences. - **Psychology:** Applying gamification techniques to mental health treatments or therapies for negative life experiences can offer potential solutions for social and individual issues. - **Education:** Developing educational games for sensitive issues can lead to a more informed, tolerant, and compassionate society. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Insulting Card Games](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/winsults-roasting-card-game.md) - [Entertaining Adult Card Games](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fck-marry-kill-adult-card-game.md) - [Life-Inspired Board Games](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-game-of-death.md) - [NSFW Party Card Games](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fork-milk-kidnap.md) - [Couple's Card Games](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ours-cards.md) - [Competitive Conversation Card Games](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/debatable-party-game.md) - [Memory-Based Adult Card Games](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/arschmallows.md) - [Ninja-Themed Card Games](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/baby-ninjas.md) - [Heavenly Behavioral Card Games](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-holiest-crap-card-game.md)
