Kill Shakespeare: The Board Game is based on the Kill Shakespeare comic book series from co-writers Anthony Del Col and Conor McCreery and artist Andy Belanger. Designed to be a "semi-cooperative"-style board game, players unite to battle against evil forces controlled by the game itself, while still jockeying to come out as the individual leader on the scoreboard.
