Ghost Court is a live-action party game about spectral justice in a small claims court, created by Bully Pulpit Games. It is perfectly suited for a large group, but you can play with as few as six players.

Play focuses on a few players at a time, as the judge and court officers hear testimony while the rest of the players take turns as plaintiffs and defendants arguing over the petty disputes between the living and the dead. The game comes with lots of different character cards complete with ready-written disputes so its very easy to roleplay.

We adapted this game to make it more accessible to those with English as a second language.

• We created a 'language menu' with useful phrases and a light script that people could use if they got stuck.

• We played some improv ice-breaker and warm-up games at the beginning. 

Each scene was short and fun and there was an opportunity to swap rules so players could play plaintiff, judge or defendants.
