Ca$h 'n Guns: Second Edition

In Ca$h 'n Guns: Second Edition, you enter the ruthless world of gangsters in a fierce dispute over the booty from a major robbery. After a successful robbery, the gang members gather in a warehouse to decide how to divide up the treasure: money, diamonds, works of art and other valuable items. But instead of a simple agreement, it takes courage and cunning, because trust is in short supply and betrayal is always lurking. With up to eight players, each takes on the identity of a gangster with unique special powers, ready to use strategies and bluffs in their moves. The boss of the round has the advantage of being immune, while the others arm themselves to ensure that their share of the robbery is as large as possible. Tensions rise as pistols are drawn and heated negotiations take place. Forget the "Bang Bang Bang!!!" cards from the previous edition; in this new version, the excitement is even greater, and the moves become more intense and dynamic. Ca$h 'n Guns: Second Edition provides laughs, moments of suspense and a delicious sense of camaraderie and rivalry, where the gangster who survives and gets the most treasure is the big winner. Do you have what it takes to come out on top?

Choose a character and take their token, 8 Bang! cards and 1 Click card, a foam gun and 5 bullet markers.

Place the pile of notes in the center of the table and deal out the wound cards face down. Designate a Capo, who will be the boss of the initial round.

The round begins with everyone choosing a Bang! or Click card and placing it face down. The Capo starts counting "1, 2, 3" and everyone points their guns at the other players.

Players have the option of cowering or standing their ground. If someone cowers, they put down their weapon and don't take part in the shooting, but they also receive a wound card.

The continuing players reveal their cards simultaneously. Bang! causes the target to receive a wound card. Click deals no damage.

After the shootout, the remaining players take parts of the available loot. The division of the loot is done by the Capo, who gives the first item to the player of his choice.

The game continues until a player dies from three wound cards or all the drawing rounds have been played. The winner is the one with the most money at the end.

• Bets and bluffs: Players need to decide when they are bluffing by using festoon bullet cards versus real ones, trying to deceive opponents about their true intentions during the gunfight.
• Negotiation: The game allows for informal negotiations between players, seeking to form temporary alliances or convincing others to change their targets to avoid personal damage.
• Campaign / Card-driven battles: Matches and results are determined by the strategic and tactical use of the cards in the players' hands, directly influencing the course of the game with different types of bullets.
