Description

In Pass the Buck, a satirical card game, you'll navigate the corporate ladder by passing off tasks to your opponents and bluffing your way to the top. With simple rules that can be explained quickly, 3 to 5 players can dive into a game that lasts around 30 to 45 minutes. As an average corporate employee, you'll have tasks to complete, departments that determine your abilities, and a level that reflects your job title. Your goal is to get rid of tasks in your hand to level up and become the CEO. You'll take turns as the delegator, trying to eliminate tasks by giving them to other players based on their department abilities. But beware - you can bluff about your department, and if caught, you might face the consequences of calling HR. This quick and clever game is all about strategy and cunning, making it a fun and humorous experience for everyone involved.
