RiskyPick

Welcome to Risky Pick, the game where every pick is kinda risky. Two to five players or teams will be picking cards and performing tasks to get points before the game clock runs out. Tasks are editable and there is a built in music player so you can get the perfect song to go with each task! THE BOARD : The board has 35 cards to choose from. The 18 green cards are easy points, get those and you get the points on the card. If you pick one of the 3 red cards, you lose all of your points. The 14 blue cards, are the riskiest of all, you have to earn those points by doing a task.   THE TASKS: The game comes with 14 default task (1 set). The tasks are all editable, you can save, import and export them. Make as many sets as you want.  Make them as simple or crazy as you want. The progress bar timer is based on the length of song you have selected for that task. We have some "default" music you can use. But imagine someone picking "Sticky Note Face-off". All they have to do is get 10 poste notes to stick to their face before the song ends, then you play the theme to The Office.  More Tasks ideas below...   HOW TO PLAY:  Show the audience the cards, point out that over half of the cards are easy green cards. But watch out, if you get a red card you lose all your points. And for the entertainment of our crowd, if you get a blue card you will be required to compete a task to get those points. Let's flip the cards and shuffle them up. We will start by picking a random player. Pick a card by giving me a letter and a number. Let's make our first ... "Risky Pick". You got a TASK card, lets see what you have to do... "Do this before the song finishes (about 30 seconds). If you do it your earn points, if not you lose points."

"02_", "03_", etc... connecting the .mp3 to the task. We can't give you copyrighted songs, so the game come with some "default" music. Those songs will work, but adding in some classic bangers takes this game to another level! Have fun!
