About the game

What you do in a play session

Bossa is a quick and elegant game for two players, where strategy and a bit of luck blend together. The goal is simple: be the first to discard all the tiles from your hand. Each tile shows combinations of black and white pips, representing numbers from 1 to 6. But beware: you can only use the pips of the color you choose! At the start, two dice (one black, one white) are rolled to set the game line. From there, you place your tiles next to the dice, following the numerical sequence. Additionally, you have three action cards to use once during the game — they can turn the tide in your favor or disrupt your opponent. There are basic rules for beginners and advanced rules for those seeking a greater challenge. It's pure fun in 10 minutes!
