About the game
What you do in a play session
Gaus Company is a breezy board game inspired by the popular South Korean webcomic "Gaus Electron." Each player takes on the role of a company employee trying to finish projects and earn rewards. On your turn you have only two options: draw two influence cards or start a project, becoming its manager. As manager you decide how the other players will be rewarded at the end of the task. Cards are discarded after use, so there are no permanent cards in the deck. The game blends dice rolling (to move on the board), hand management, set collection and "take that" effects that let you mess with opponents. If a project fails, it is removed from the game forever and the failing player pays a penalty. Playtime is quick – 20 to 40 minutes – and the learning curve is shallow, making it perfect for 3‑5 players who enjoy light negotiation and economic choices. Despite the corporate theme, the atmosphere stays casual, with plenty of room for friendly banter among the fictional coworkers.
