Entrepoly's board: product cards, balance and team overview

“Ah crap, now I accidentally hired one of those marketing goons!” With our game Entrepoly we took first place in Kenya.

Over the past few days I had the honour of joining a very special game jam in Nairobi as an expert with R42 Games Hub & Accelerator, on behalf of the Konrad-Adenauer-Stiftung. My team was made up of incredibly talented people with completely different backgrounds: tech, blockchain, project management and coaching all the way to game development.

The result: Entrepoly is a turn-based start-up simulation board game where you compete against your friends: who’s the first to reach $1,000,000? Develop products from the initial idea all the way to gold standard, hire interns, juniors or seniors with different skills, and generate more revenue than your competition.

The game turned out super funny, and we’ve already had serious fits of laughter – thanks to quotes like the one above. Try it together with friends; you’ll find access on our community Discord.
