Lawyer Up is an asymmetrical two-player card game where one player takes on the role of the noble Prosecutor and the other plays the resolute Defense in a thrilling courtroom drama. Each game begins with a Discovery phase where players draft vital evidence to support their case and hide evidence that could aid their opponent. This is followed by the Trial phase, where players call witnesses and play powerful arguments along with the evidence they drafted into their examination pools. To create a cohesive line of questioning, players must chain their cards together by matching bias symbols. The player who can best cross-examine the witness by generating the most influence will spend the difference to sway the Jury to their side. Each game is different, but the lawyer with the best case and most convincing arguments will secure the verdict they're after!

Includes four replayable cases: Art Forgery, Murder, Godfather, and Witch Trial
