In Ca$h 'n Gun$, players take on the roles of gangsters fighting over loot in an abandoned warehouse. Using foam guns and bluffing cards, players simultaneously choose actions and aim at each other. Negotiation, risk-taking, and player elimination create tense and fast-paced rounds where the richest surviving gangster wins the game.
Who Is This Game For?
This party game suits players aged 10 and up looking for a light, social experience lasting about 30 minutes. It requires no prior experience, making it accessible for casual gamers and groups seeking interactive bluffing fun.
How It Works
Each round, a player acts as the Don, overseeing the cash pot split. Players simultaneously select cards representing shots: 'Bang!', 'Triple Bang!', or 'Click!' (a bluff). They then aim foam guns at others and decide whether to 'Chicken Out' or stay in. Wounded players are excluded from the loot and receive bandages; too many wounds lead to elimination. The game continues until one player remains or the loot is divided.

Designed by Ludovic Maublanc, Ca$h 'n Gun$ earned several nominations including the 2006 Golden Geek Best Light / Party Game. Its blend of simultaneous action selection, bluffing, and player elimination with toy guns as components sets it apart in the party game genre.
