About the game
What you do in a play session
If you love testing your knowledge and even more, you love watching the chaos unfold with a heavy dose of bluffing, get ready! Gamb'List! is the kind of party game that turns any gathering into a frantic competitive arena. The concept is simple, but the execution is pure adrenaline: during lightning-fast 45-second rounds, everyone simultaneously writes down as many items as possible for a specific trivia category. It's a total rush! But the fun doesn't stop when the timer hits zero. Once time is up, the game shifts gears into dangerous territory: betting. Inspired by poker-style mechanics, you enter a betting phase where you must decide if your list is strong enough to win or if you should bluff to trick your friends and save your tokens. You can call, raise, or fold. To make things even more interesting, you can use special power cards that can flip the game on its head at any moment. It's a high-interaction experience where you don't just need to know your facts, but also need to be a master at reading people and knowing exactly when to push your luck or play it safe. Supporting up to 99 players, it's the ultimate choice for massive parties where nobody wants to sit around waiting for their turn. It's fast, it's chaotic, and it's incredibly competitive!
