Description

Aggretsuko is a fast-playing card game for 3-6 players, where each player takes the role of a mild-mannered office worker trying to get through their work each day. If a worker becomes frustrated, they can RAGE to let out their inner heavy-metal rock star. RAGING will provide some much-needed relief from the daily grind, but it may have consequences later on.

The game is played over five hands, each one representing a day at the office. Each day, workers try to complete their work and go home by being the first to play all the cards from their hand. The first worker to complete all of their work ends the day. The others must count up the cards left in their hands and record the extra hours that they owe the company. If they have too much work left, they may even have to put in overtime!

Features:

• Go from mild-mannered office worker to raging heavy-metal rock star as you race to finish your work.
• Combine co-workers like Director Ton, Director Gori, and Kabae to be the first to empty your hand.
• Still have cards in your hand at the end of the day? You’ll have to work overtime!
• A card game for 3-6 Players, ages 10+, with a playtime of 30 min.

Your goal in Aggretsuko: Work/Rage Balance is to get out of work as quickly as possible — that is, to rid yourself of all cards in your hand. The game lasts five workdays (i.e., five rounds), and whoever has the lowest score once the weekend arrives wins.

The deck consists of 86 cards, with two cards each numbered 1-10 in four suits, along with three 11s, two 12s, and one 13. Each player starts with a hand of thirteen cards. The leader of the round plays a combination of 1-5 cards, then each subsequent player can play the same number of cards but of a higher value or pass. Once all but one person has passed, the cards are cleared from the table, then the last player to play leads something else.

Once per round, when you pass, you can rage, placing your rage card on a card that’s currently on the table. When these cards are cleared, you can place the claimed card in your hand.

Note that a “Rainbow Bomb” — four consecutive cards with each suit represented — can be played on your turn no matter what’s currently being played, and this can be beaten only by a higher Rainbow Bomb.

When one played voids their hand, the round ends. Everyone with cards in hand then scores 1-3 points per card based on how many they have, then you shuffle for a new round unless the weekend is here
