Description
Jobber is a simple yet strategic board game designed by John Tate, first published in 2006. In this abstract strategy game, players compete against each other, with the goal of eliminating all of their own pieces from the board. This can be achieved in two ways: by navigating your pieces to their designated elimination corner or by using your opponent's pieces against them, Checkers style, by jumping over them. The game is designed for two players and can be played in just 30 minutes, making it a great option for a quick gaming session. What makes Jobber unique is the Jobber piece, which must stay within the specially marked Jobber row in the middle of the board. This piece can be used to block your opponent's pieces, hindering their progress, or to advance your own pieces by having them jump over the Jobber piece. With its point to point movement mechanics and print and play design, Jobber offers a fun and challenging experience for players of all ages. Despite its simple rules, the game requires strategic thinking and planning, making it an engaging and entertaining experience for players looking for a fun and competitive game.
