The Game

Every move builds your empire.

Roll two dice and work your way around a board of 46 spaces. Pick up Plug cards, buy product in cities overseas, run it back to the States and sell it on the roll of a die. Fate cards can make you or break you. Busted cards are the law catching up. Everyone starts with $100,000; the first player to get back to START holding $1,000,000 in cash is the B.O.S.S.

The B.O.S.S. game board. The gold B.O.S.S. logo sits over a night skyline, ringed by spaces: overseas cities like Kabul, Bogotá and Kingston down one side, U.S. cities like New York, Miami and Chicago down the other, with Fate, Plug, Jackpot, Jail and START.
The board, by Gbody

  • Four at the table

    Up to four players. Send friends an invite link, or fill the empty seats with computer players.

  • Buy overseas

    Mexico City, Mandalay, Istanbul, Bangkok, Kingston, Bogotá and Kabul. Your Plug cards name the city and the deal; buy all of it or part of it there.

  • Sell stateside

    New York, Miami, Los Angeles, Chicago, Detroit, Atlanta and Houston. One die sets the price.

  • Make the call

    How much to buy, whether to stop at a city you pass, whether to stay and roll again or move on with what you carry.

  • Cards, dice, risk

    Fate cards help or hurt. Busted cards bring the law. Every penalty feeds the Jackpot, and landing on it exactly takes it all.

  • Become the B.O.S.S.

    Turn your $100,000 into $1,000,000, then get back to START with it in cash. If nobody does it in 100 rounds, the richest player takes the crown.

How to Play

Three moves to the top.

  1. Build your bankroll

    You start on START with $100,000 and 2 Plug cards. Every time you pass START you collect $15,000. More Plug cards come only from landing on a PLUG space. Nobody can buy until they've been around the board once.

    Land on START exactly: $30,000. Roll doubles 3 times in a row: 5 lb of cocaine.

  2. Buy overseas

    Each Plug card buys in the city printed on it: land there and play that city's cards, as many deals as your money covers. Each city sells its own product 25% cheaper, Istanbul everything 10% cheaper. Passing a city you hold a card for, you can stop there.

    The price: leaving any overseas city, you draw a Busted card, unless you were already busted there.

  3. Sell stateside

    Land in one of seven U.S. cities and you can go into its own board: two dice a turn through its deals and raids. SELL STASH stops you to sell, where one die sets the price.

    A 6 is the top price. 10% tax goes to the Jackpot.
Doubles roll again. Can't pay? Sell Plug cards to the bank, or go on the Tab.
