American Pursuit is a fast-paced, all-American, strategic card game where you unleash your inner hustler and chase the American dream in a slapdash race to the finish.
Step into the shoes of 6 cliched characters and lead them in their pursuit of greatness/craft beer/Instagram followers. Your objective is to embrace the American spirit and collect as many dreams as you can — But you’re not the only one chasing them!
Outwit your rivals with cunning action card tactics, collect cash cards, and gain popularity to collect dreams and come out on top. Life, liberty, and the pursuit of laughter — preferably at your rivals’ expense: that's the American Pursuit!
Gameplay:
The aim of the game is to collect the most dreams. Players take turns and get to make up to 3 moves per turn. You can play an action or cash card from your hand, purchase a dream, or use your character’s special ability.
Action Cards will either help you or sabotage your opponents, turning their dream pursuit into a nightmare.
Along the way you’ll also collect and play Cash Cards. These will help you buy dreams, or help fend off attacks on your existing ones, bringing you closer to victory.
But money’s not all you’ll need to win. Make sure you increase your popularity along the way to achieve your dreams.
Each character has a unique special ability that can be used once per game to snatch dreams – and victory – away from your opponents.
Battle it out with your so-called “friends” until the dream river has dried up. The player with the highest number of dreams wins!
