About the game
What you do in a play session
The gameplay is split into two main rounds. In the first, each player selects a category and, after passing the booklets to the left, rolls the dice to define which letters must be used to create a creative title. The challenge is to fit those letters into something that makes sense within the chosen category—or at least something funny enough to earn points. Once the booklets return to their original owners, it is time for the truth: players use wacky award cards to judge the best (or most ridiculous) suggestion. The winners take home the ultimate prize: bananas!
In the second round, the game levels up. We use the winning titles from the first round as a base to craft brilliant (or completely nonsensical) advertising taglines using new acronyms generated by the dice. It is a constant exercise in creativity under pressure, where logic often gives way to pure nonsense. The game shines precisely because it does not take itself seriously, making it perfect for breaking the ice in large groups, as it accommodates 3 to 8 players. With quick sessions lasting between 20 and 40 minutes, it is the ideal choice for those moments when no one wants to overthink, just have a good laugh at the bizarre ideas that emerge at the table. If you enjoy word games, creativity, and a bit of a mess, Gorilla Marketing is your new must-have shelf item. Prepare your vocabulary, sharpen your wit, and come prove that even as a gorilla, you are an advertising genius!
