Rules in testing

Binge Your Luck

One more episode. What could go wrong?

You binge-watch series for three nights, with a new season every night. Every episode scores points but costs sleep. Go to bed in time and your points are safe. Fall asleep and you lose everything from tonight.

One more?

Play a single night. Every episode costs Sleep and scores points: the first 1 point, the second 2, and so on. From midnight they count double, but you also roll the Yawn Die.

It's 22:00. You're on the sofa with 9 Sleep. Start watching.

A simplified taste of a single night. In the real game you pick from an open row of episodes every round, you build a stack per series, and all players decide at the same time.

How it plays

Pick
Every round a row of episodes lies face up. You must take one and add it to its series. The longer you follow a series, the more an episode is worth: the first 1 point, the second 2, up to 6.
Stay awake
Every episode costs 0 to 3 Sleep. From midnight your points count double, but you also roll the Yawn Die: it costs 0, 1 or 2 extra Sleep.
One more?
After every round you count down together and everyone chooses at once. Thumb up: you keep watching. Thumb down: you go to bed and your points are safe. If your Sleep hits 0, you fall asleep and lose your points from tonight.

Why you'll want to play it

One question, ever more tense
Early in the evening you just keep watching. After midnight your points double and the risk grows with them.
Everyone chooses at once
Count down together, then thumb up or down. You only see what the others do once you have chosen yourself.
Your series carry on
What you start in night 1, you keep watching in nights 2 and 3. A series you follow through all three seasons scores extra points.
An early night pays off too
Whoever goes to bed first gets first pick of their place in the next night's turn order.

Who is it for?

For anyone who has ever stayed up watching for too long. Binge Your Luck is a push-your-luck game for 2 to 5 players. We are aiming for 30 to 45 minutes a game.
