Press Review
Congratulations, you've just been hired to work for the best of the best advertising agencies, which means you must have what it takes to be the advertising stars of tomorrow. But to get there, you're going to have to work hard, my little sweeties!
Pop Com is a Party Game with hilarious challenges in an offbeat advertising world.
Briefing
Using your creative talents—real or fake—try to keep your job at the Pop Com ad agency. Stand out from your competitors by scoring the highest total points for each campaign, deal or project that you land!
Brainstorming
At the start of each round, the CD draws a card and chooses a project from the 4 projects displayed on the front and back of the card, then reads it out to the other players.
And we're off! Sketch, write, brainstorm... ideas to pitch in the next stage. The CD does not take part in this brainstorming but supervises the employees. When one player has come up with an idea, they declare they're ready, and the other players only have 20 seconds left to finish what they're working on.
Pitching
Starting with the person to the left of the CD and proceeding clockwise, pitch your great idea.
For challenges to be tackled together, present all your ideas at the same time..
Debriefing
At the end of each round, the CD chooses the 2 ideas they liked the best. Their favorite scores 2 points, and the second favorite scores 1 point.
End of the Game
Once everyone has played the role of Art Director once or twice, the person with the most Project cards becomes the Employee of the Month at Pop Com! As for the one with the fewest cards, well... it's forever coffee duty!
