Cash ‘n Guns

Cash ‘n Guns is a fun party game that lets you relive the best scenes of your favourite gangster films!

In an abandoned warehouse a gangster band is splitting its loot, but they can't agree on the split! It's time to let the guns talk and soon everyone is aiming at everyone. The richest surviving gangster wins the game! The goal is to have more money than anyone else after eight rounds while still being alive.

Each round, one player is the Boss and loot cards are revealed on the table to show what's up for grabs. Next, players load their guns by secretly selecting either a "Bang!" or a "Click! Click!" card from their hand. The Boss counts to three, and on "Three" each player points their foam gun at someone else; due to their status, the Boss can tell one player who's pointing a gun at them that they needs to point it in another direction. After a pause to observe threats and measure the seriousness in an opponent's eyes, the Boss counts to three again and anyone who doesn't want to risk getting shot can remove themselves from the round.

Everyone who's pointing a gun at someone still in the round now reveals their card, and anyone who's the target of a "Bang!" takes a wound marker and gets none of the available loot. Starting with the Boss, everyone still in the round takes one loot card at a time from the table — money, diamonds, paintings, the position of Boss, medical care (to remove a wound), or a new bullet (to add a "Bang!" card to your hand) — until everything has been claimed.

After eight rounds whoever has the most diamonds receives a big bonus, and paintings score based on the number of them that you've collected. Whoever has the most valuable stash wins!

Cash ‘n Guns is for 4-8 players, lasts around 30 minutes and is for players aged 10+

Why we love it:

Lots of party games often rely on trivia being the main mechanic and Cash ‘n Guns couldn’t be further from that! It’s a really fun concept with foam guns to point at your opponents, what more could you want from a party game right?!
