Description

The Big Idea is a quick and easy card game where you play as a venture capitalist creating companies from a combination of noun and adjective cards, resulting in hilarious and often bizarre product names. With simple rules that can be explained fast, you'll be up and running in no time, creating companies and taking them through the process of an IPO. As you create companies, you'll automatically gain a share, and later you'll have opportunities to secretly invest in or publicly buy shares in other companies. As the game unfolds, you'll roll a die to see which companies go public, and the payout will be based on the number of shares issued and the number of cards used to form the company. The fun lies in creating outrageous product names and strategizing about which companies to support, all while trying to maximize your own gain. With 45 minutes of playtime and support for 3 to 6 players, The Big Idea is a great party game that's lots of fun and easy to learn.
