About the game

What you do in a play session

Hey everyone! Ready to amp up the chaos and dirty money? Ca$h 'n Gun$: Yakuzas is the expansion that arrives to supercharge the base game, bringing more people to the table and more trouble to sort out. Now you can invite two more friends to this whole madness, totaling 9 players all vying for the cash. But that's not all! The Yakuza sent some new goodies to spice things up: new weapons like Tantos, Shuriken, and the powerful Shotgun, ready to make some noise. Plus, there are new cards with special powers that can turn the game upside down and object cards that add that extra flavor to negotiations (or the lack thereof!).

If you dig the vibe of Ca$h 'n Gun$, where the tension is palpable and each round is a new chance to walk away rich or get shot, this expansion is for you. It keeps the essence of the original game: the simultaneous action selection that creates moments of pure guesswork and suspicion, player elimination that makes the competition fiercer, and variable powers that give each Yakuza at the table a unique touch. It's guaranteed fun for those who love to bluff, negotiate (or threaten!), and watch the circus go up in flames. Get ready for more laughs, more shouts, and, who knows, maybe more money in your pocket. Just don't say we didn't warn you when the Shotgun fires in your direction!
