Description

Shake Up is a unique deck destruction game where players take on the role of business consultants trying to turn around a struggling IT company. With identical decks representing the company's employees, players must strategically utilize their cards' abilities and make tough decisions about which employees to keep and which to lay off. This process of streamlining their deck makes it more efficient, but also means sacrificing the abilities of higher-paid executives. As players draw cards and manage their deck, they'll also have opportunities to disrupt their opponent's plans and protect their own business proposals. The goal is to be the first to put the company in the green, and players can call an Audit to count their revenue and declare victory - but beware, calling an Audit too early can result in more debt and a longer road to victory.
