STORY:

The Game Crafter (TGC) is the world’s first web-to-print game publishing company & offers a print on demand game publishing service. TGC empowers game designers around the world.

Year 5050, a new age for the game industry where Board Games became the number one form of entertainment. You are one of this age's TGC Staff where your goal is to pack all the Items (dice, cards, tokens, etc.) on your Box ordered by the customer to gain Coins.

Unity is important in any team so the Staff must be unified in decision making so that the company will not go bankrupt. In this age, the minority vote is elected.

Gain more Coins while being a team-player in this Pack Age.


OVERVIEW & OBJECTIVE:

PACK AGE is a Roll & Write game with voting & bluffing, where players write on the dice before rolling & also write on cards. It’s both cooperative & competitive because a player may win through bluffing or all players are lost to the game if they are not always unified in voting.

Players are given a Role with various Jobs (usually affects the votes). They are also given a customer Order (with specific number of Items Needed) as their goal. The Starting Player may write an Item on a Die then roll the two Dice. The Staff (players) will discuss & vote secretly from the given results of the roll. The Staff should vote unanimously on an Item; but a player may bluff. You can only pack (write on your Box' grids) that Elected Item from the minority vote.

Coins are given to a finished packed Box, use of Jobs, etc. The player that has the highest number of Coins wins or no one wins if the players didn't vote unanimously for seven times.


GAMEPLAY:

PACK AGE plays in rounds. Each round is made up of 5 quick Phases:

  1. INVEST - Starting Player (player that has the Early Bird Card) may write/rewrite an Item on the Black Die or that player gains a Coin if they didn’t write on the Die. Then that player rolls both the White Die (with fixed Items) & Black Die (blank; where a player can write Items).

  2. VOTE – Players discuss what Item to vote; may bluff. Then secretly write the vote on their Voting Cards.

  3. JOB – Players may or may not use their Role's Job.

  4. STOCK – The Voting Cards are revealed. The Item that has the minority votes is elected.

  5. PACK – Players that voted the Elected Item may or may not write that Item OR erase an Item on their Box Card. Then give the Early Bird Card to the right to begin the next round.


ENDGAME:

Game ends when one of the following occurred:

  • A player completes an order (all the number of Items Needed in their Order Card are drawn on their Box Card).

  • All seven circles on the Bankruptcy Card are shaded.


SCORING & RESULT:

At the end of the game, Coins are given to the following:

  • Completed Order = +20 Coins
  • Items drawn on Box = +1 per Item
  • Shaded Coins on BANK Section = +1 Coin per shade
  • Unshaded circle on Job Card = +2 Coins per unshaded
  • Bonus if never used Job = +3 Coins if five unshaded Job
  • Done the Specification in Order Card = +2 Coins per specification
  • Unshaded circle in Bankruptcy Card = +5 Coins per unshaded

Add your total Coins and write it on the INCOME Section of your Role Card.

  • The player that has the highest Income (highest total Coins) wins and gains the title of Employee of the Day!
  • But if all seven circles on the Bankruptcy Card are shaded, the company goes bankrupt so everyone lost to the game!
