Sell Outs by Bad Kerning LLC

What is Sell Outs?

Sell Outs is a tabletop card game about solving curious problems with absurd creative solutions! This turn-based game is best with 3-7 players, but can be played with more.

Sell Outs is different from other card based games because it asks you to explain your choice, think creatively about your solutions, and figure out new ways to interpret cards. The standard rules allow for hundreds of millions of combinations of cards, but the freedom to reinterpret your cards as you see fit means the possibilities are nearly endless!

Playing Sell Outs is quite simple. Each round, one player, designated as the customer, draws and reads a problem card aloud to the other players. Every other player chooses one product and one feature from their hand (which they think will solve their problem) as well as a random feature from the draw pile, placing them on the table. Starting with the player to the customer’s left, that player tries to pitch their product to solve the customer’s problem. The random feature will be flipped over partway through your pitch for a little twist!

Once all pitches are complete, the customer chooses the product that best solved their problem. The player to the customer’s left becomes the new customer, and play continues until everyone has been the customer three times. After that, the player with the most collected problems wins!

What's In The Box?

If you pre-order the game on Kickstarter, you'll get the main set of cards as well as 40 exclusive cards written and voted on by our Kickstarter backers as well as a box that is numbered with your backer number.

The cards are 2"x3.5", professionally printed and digitally cut so they're easy to use.

Each set contains 450 cards - 125 products, 275 features, and 50 problems.

About Us

Sean is an avid tabletop gamer who came up with the idea for Sell Outs while playing a game of Pretend You’re Xyzzy (Cards Against Humanity online) with a new group of friends that knew each other very well. He had the idea to make a party game that would be less prone to inside jokes and biases.
