Our experts have spent time searching for great games similar to Trial by Trolley and have found the following:
Trial by Trolley is a game about exaggerated moral choices, based on the trolley problem that forces you to choose between two bad scenarios. Each team places a series of innocent things on their track and not-so-innocent things on their opponent's track. They then try and convince the Conductor player to send the train down the other branch. It's a simple premise about making really difficult decisions that is made fun by how over-the-top (and how of-the-current-cultural-moment) the choices are.
