## Description
If you've ever dreamed of running the top tier of a corporate office, The Office: Assistant to the Regional Manager gives you the chance to become the region’s slickest assistant. In 20 to 40 minutes—depending on the size of the group—each player takes on the role of an assistant ready to spread influence throughout the building. The game unfolds over a series of rounds where you use scheme cards to sabotage opponents, place influence tokens on strategic board locations, and roll dice to generate unexpected outcomes. An action timer forces quick decisions, upping the tension and the fun. The area majority mechanic ensures that control of sites is contested dynamically, while the "Take That" action lets a player interrupt another’s strategy at the right moment. The experience is light, with points accumulating toward the end, and carving a path to victory can be as entertaining as the game itself. With 3 to 99 players, it fits perfectly into parties and gatherings, delivering a social experience that doesn’t require a huge time investment. The office aesthetic, combined with humor and satire about corporate hierarchies, makes this title a hit for fans of party games that mix light strategy and social interaction.
