Kangaroo Court is a 1991 HyperCard game by Dave and P.F. Dumanis. Having been charged with an unknown, often absurd crime, you are forced to bargain for their innocence from a sadistic kangaroo judge who takes every opportunity to belittle and harass them. Players can take any number of strategies against the Kangaroo, including bribery, sucking up, and confrontation. They all invariably result in failure or death.
