Description

Gnadenlos is a game where players enter a prospecting boom town and try to accumulate the most prestige points. Instead of doing the dirty work themselves, players hire adventurers to pan for gold, fight gun battles, and play poker games. These rough-tough folk are hired with pieces of paper, essentially IOUs, which come due on pay day. If a player can't pay off debts, they're in trouble. Players bid for adventurer cards to use in events like Gold Fever, High Noon, and the Poker Game. Each adventurer has a rating for each event, and the highest rating wins. The game is full of twists and turns, with players trying to manage their debts and accumulate prestige points. With its unique blend of auction, dice rolling, and bluffing mechanics, Gnadenlos is a thrilling game for 3 to 4 players that can be learned quickly and played in just 45 minutes.
