Fruit Boss

You crave power. You crave respect. But first-you need the Fruit. In Fruit Boss, players take on the role of "junior fruit executives" and battle for marketplace dominance by collecting the most valuable sets of fruit. Pay into market stalls to snatch neighboring stacks, but beware: every move opens a door for your opponent. It’s not personal. It’s just business.

The goal of this quick and easy card game is to collect stacks from the market to build high-scoring sets in your private collection. To claim a stack, you must create a more valuable stack in an adjacent stall. On your turn, you'll take actions like stacking, sliding, and combining to achieve your goals. Stacks must have at least two cards to be collected. But be careful-if any stack hits five or more cards, it topples, removing itself and a neighboring stack from the game. And watch out for Maneki-neko, he want to the fruit too.

At the end of the round, you’ll score your top three fruit sets. Sets are scored by multiplying the highest-value fruit by the number of cards in that suit. Extra fruit? That’s a penalty. The player with the highest score wins.

Fruit Boss plays great at two and includes rules for up to four players. It has a classic card game feel with modern tactics and mechanics. And also fruit. It has fruit.
