Conspiracy theorists have latched onto a 90s card game in the firm belief that its creator predicted horrific and monumental moments in human history.
The card game Illuminati: New World Order, released in 1994 by Steve Jackson Games, pits players against one another in the pursuit of global domination.
It sets players up as a member of the Illuminati – a group who conspiracy theorists believe control events of global significance from behind the scenes – who must eliminate their rivals.
Many of the cards used appear to have underlying sinister connections to world events, with cards named Professional Sports, Brazil and Don’t Touch That Dial.
