About the Game

- What is Big Boy Throwdown?? -

Big Boy Throwdown is an award-winning card and dice game about a bunch of weirdos fighting each other.Play your cards, roll the dice, get even more cards and play your way to the top!

Set in the world between dimensions known as the Between-Zone, the first deck of BBT features 100 unique cards and over 80 characters, including Angry Eggs, Strange Salesmen, Cosmic Clowns, Friendly Frogs, Chicken Champions, Noble Knights, Sentient Squares, a giant green cat named 'Dr. Uncle' and more.

BBT is all the fun and variety of classic trading card games, easy to learn and straight out of the box!

- The Game -

Gameplay runs in a slick & quick combination of strategy & chance, with players using the cards in their possession to attack their opponents' cards.If a player destroys an opponent's card, they roll to draw a random card from the Deck. This is the only reliable way to keep getting cards.

All cards have their own unique stats and a variety of Effects, which twist the rules and vary wildly in power & utility.

Because of the sheer number of cards in this first Deck, you may very well play half a dozen games of BBT before you see all of the unique, comical, and wonderfully surreal characters that we've packed into this first installment.

- The Details -

Recommended game size: 2-6 players BBT is really designed for groups of 3 or more players, but does work with two players. More than 6 players can play BBT at a time, but game time will be longer as a result.

Avg. Game Length: 5-20 minutes

Ages 12+

- The Makers -

BBT is a labor-of-love project by Clown Car Entertainment, a small group of artists and creators centered in Pittsburgh, PA.

The game was first created in fall of 2016 when the makers were in college, and quickly won the hearts of their peers who played it between classes and during get-togethers. We're eternally grateful for all of the support they gave us; it helped us turn sketches on index cards into a fully fledged game project that anyone can play.
