In Jobbo, one player takes on the role of the Boss. They know the secret mission the team must uncover, but they are not allowed to speak.
To guide the other players, they use only Job cards, which they rank according to their effectiveness in completing the mission to be guessed. Why would a firefighter be better than a gardener? Why would an astronaut be less useful than a detective? It’s up to you to interpret the clues!
Meanwhile, the other players debate, exchange theories, and gradually eliminate the missions visible on the table. But be careful: a wrong deduction can make the correct mission disappear before the round ends.
Accessible, fast-paced, and a source of memorable discussions, Jobbo blends deduction, indirect communication, and imagination into a formula that’s simple to explain but difficult to master.
