The Boss
Players play cards to reveal information about potential loot or penalties available in various American cities. Based on those clues, players deploy gang members—some experienced, some inexperienced—to cities on the board. Majority control in a city wins its reward or suffers its sanction, with a special rule in Chicago that forces the winner to share proceeds with its notorious boss. The game combines deduction, bluffing, and player interaction as hidden information accumulates and stakes increase over successive rounds.

Garfield2.0 #8 Too boring to keep it.
Bluffing bidding card game. Not bad but not great.
Des avis divisés autour de ce jeu. Un peu trop froid pour plusieurs joueurs, un peu trop long aussi pour cette légèreté. Un 6 qui veut justement dire qu'on y jouera selon l'humeur du moment !
