Superfight is a game at SXSW that encourages you to argue with other players about ridiculous things. The game was funded on Kickstarter and aims to provide a more geek-friendly alternative to such party game staples as Cards Against Humanity and Apples To Apples.
The premise for the game is pretty simple. You pick a character from the white deck -- perhaps it's a historical figure or a fictional one from a TV show. Then, you pick a trait for your character from the black deck -- perhaps your character owns a jetpack or has the power to turn invisible. What ensues at this point is pure hilarity.
Be warned that if you play the Superfight game at SXSW, you might leave thinking you're Walter White with a jetpack or an invisible Pope. But that might not be a bad thing, it's nice to be able to let your imagination run wild sometimes.
