Pumped Up Card Game

2025

2 - 6 players
15 min

From BoardGameGeek

In Pumped Up, players compete to be the first to reach a total of 25 points by drawing from a single, shared deck stacked face-down in the center of the play area. Featuring a lighthearted, family-friendly theme, the game relies on a tense push-your-luck mechanism where players must decide how far to inflate their score before their luck pops. On a turn, the active player draws cards one by one from the center deck to accumulate points. After each successful draw, the player faces a choice: continue drawing to gain more points, or voluntarily stop to safely bank their accumulated points for the round. All drawn cards are placed face-up in front of the player, keeping everyone's current point totals completely visible. However, danger hides in the deck. If a player draws a "Boom" card, they immediately lose all accumulated points and must start over on their next round. If they draw a "Stop" card, their turn is forced to an end, but they are allowed to safely bank the points they gathered up to that moment. The game begins with the youngest player and continues clockwise. Play proceeds until one player successfully banks 25 or more points, instantly winning the game. -description from designer
