Do toys or terrorists kill more people? Murder or suicide? In a deadly game of solitaire, you are asked to rank mortality risks from small to large.
This game uses real statistics about real risks. Warning: play leads to real knowledge about risk from plane crashes, heart disease, and snake bite. Your friends may not thank you.
