What to Expect

In Anti-Social, players compete to occupy as little space on the board as possible. Unlike typical games that focus on claiming territory, this game challenges you to place the fewest pawns. You can simulate negative behaviors and force others to play against themselves. The game ends when the board is full; the player with the least pawns on the board wins.

Who Is This Game For?

Anti-Social is suitable for players aged 7 and up looking for a quick, accessible game for 3-4 people. It is a family-friendly game with low complexity and is ideal for players without much experience. The short duration of about 30 minutes allows for fast game sessions.

How It Works

Each turn, players may play up to two 'Anti-Social Behavior' cards and must place one pawn on the board. The goal is to have the fewest pawns placed when the board is full. There are no classic mechanics like worker placement or engine building; the focus is on negative area control.

What Makes It Special

Designed by Eric Bryan Seuthe, II, Anti-Social stands out by reversing the usual goal of area control. Instead of expanding your presence, you try to minimize it. The game offers a humorous and social experience without complex mechanics. No official awards are known.
