Description

In The Gig, you're part of a jazz group, improvising your way through a song, trying to please the audience and create mind-blowing solos. The game is easy to learn and plays out over 20 to 30 minutes, making it a great fit for 1 to 4 players. You'll roll and place dice in real time, creating patterns and gaining symbols to add to your instrument's unique solo board. As you play through the six rounds, or "songs", you'll try to outdo your fellow musicians, using symbols to change your dice, buy audience cards, or score points. With variable player powers and end game bonuses, every game is different. The player with the most points at the end wins, so get ready to jam and take your jazz group to the top.
