In American Psycho: A Killer Game, a trick-taking game of yuppie one-upmanship set in the world of high-stakes investment banking at Pierce & Pierce, you will compare your accomplishments as you seek to obtain the most valuable assets, secure reservations at the trendiest restaurants, maintain your personal appearance, and have a better business card than your hated colleagues — all while attempting to keep your psychotic rage in check and that rising body count under control. After all, getting ahead in this world can sometimes be absolute murder!

In game terms, you will lead "meetings" where all players contribute a card, usually of the matching suit. The highest played card wins, but every meeting will have a "killer suit" that beats the leading suit. A scene card drawn for every meeting further complicates things, forcing players to always remain on their toes. In this merciless world of high finance, some players will need to draw murder cards, and eventually those bodies will start to pile up. Bodies are worth negative points — unless you also happen to have collected the most, in which case they might actually help you secure your victory.
