Bucket of Doom is a party game of death-dodging, where you have to come out unscathed from most dangerous situations, using utterly useless objects. A player starts where somebody is in a situation that one's demise is about to strike. If it be getting buried alive inside an airtight coffin, finding an alien parasite inside one's body-your job is coming up with the best, mostly outrageous, plan for your escape.
It's played with a deck of cards, each with an object on it to help you get out of certain doom. Each player will describe how they would escape using their object cards in the most creative way possible. Everyone listening to the wild and zany plans votes for the most creative; the best story wins. Bucket of Doom is as much about storytelling as it is about surviving, since each player has to concoct the most audacious-and often hilarious-idea for escape.
This is a card-based party game in a hot pink toxic bucket, offering a humorous element with a touch of randomness. Players will need to survive some crazy animal attacks, alien threats, and other situations that are utterly out of this world. The things in your hand may seem useless at first, but they are the key to escaping these increasingly bizarre scenarios. Bucket of Doom is all about thinking on your feet and embracing the chaos.
For example, you could be on a walking safari and suddenly find yourself in the middle of a wildebeest stampede. Fortunately, your Object Card is "Fart in a jar," which you use to blast yourself into the air and hover above the stampede. As you may imagine, it gets really creative and quite a lot of fun. So get your bucket ready and enjoy one night of hilarity with friends and silly means of survival in Bucket of Doom!

We played this last night and we were rolling on the ground laughing. I guess it might depend on who is playing with you but we had quite the funny group.
