Who it's for

You like the Yahtzee dice feeling but want a theme and a story. Fun for two to four who enjoy joking about their characters' choices.

Not for you if…

You want precise strategy without luck. Dice decide a lot, and some players find the theme more entertaining than the decisions.

Vibe's take

Light, funny and a bit gamblish. You roll, hold, re-roll and sigh when the dice refuse to give you the career you wanted. The cards tell a goofy story of the life you end up with.

About this game

CV is your whole life in a dice-and-card game, played from first job to final retirement party. You lead a character through the years by choosing friends, relationships, jobs and activities from the cards on the table, and each card asks for a certain combination of dice. Rolling and re-rolling works like Yahtzee, but with a pinch of push-your-luck: how long do you keep trying for a dream job before you take the safe option? Keeping the right balance of money, skills and contacts shapes how your life ends up. Silly, sometimes absurd, and surprisingly good at provoking stories about the lives you did not live.
