Who it's for

Groups wanting a fast, laughter-filled push-your-luck warm-up with simple rules and plenty of tension.

Not for you if…

You want strategy or dislike games ruled by luck. There is little decision beyond stop-or-go, and a bad run can knock you out with no way to fight back.

Vibe's take

The classic gambler's squeeze in miniature, all groans and cheers as one more nugget tempts you toward the dragon.
