Description

What Ho, World is a fun and lighthearted role-playing game set in the upper classes of the roaring 20s. With simple rules that can be explained quickly, 3 to 5 players can jump into the game and start telling a great story together over the course of 90 to 180 minutes. Players choose from a range of quirky characters, customizing them with ability cards, relationships, and cosmetic details to create a unique persona. As players take turns acting out short scenes, they can use special abilities to influence the story, helping or hindering their fellow characters as they work towards their goals. With a limited pool of tokens to manage, players must plan carefully to guide the story in their preferred direction. As characters complete their goals, they accumulate tokens that can be cashed in for a final attempt to achieve success, leading to a fun and entertaining conclusion to the game.
