Description

ATTENTION GAMENERDS: THIS GAME USES THE RULES OF THE GAME LOVE LETTER. THIS MAY BE TRIGGERING TO SOME OF YOU. WE ARE NOT TRYING TO PRETEND WE INVENTED THE MECHANICS HERE. WE JUST WANTED TO MAKE A GAME ABOUT ADVERTISING AND SHOW OFF OUR ILLUSTRATION SKILLS, OKAY? (If you want to buy the original Love Letter game, (and we encourage it!) go to Love Letter Being adnerds, we took out all the love stuff and replaced it with advertising stuff (where there's never much love, especially during a pitch).

STORY: There's a big account up for review and you've been assigned to the pitch. Find the Killer Idea before everyone else and you're golden! But fall victim to the egomaniacal creative directors and penny-pinching cost consultants and you could end up with nothing.

The Advertising Game is a test of guts, brains, and luck for 2–4 players. (Martinis not included.)

It's pretty funny that the "designer" of this game listed Bang as a comparison, instead of Love Letter--this game is, literally, a knockoff of Love Letter. Everything about the game, from the mechanic...
