PAWNSHOP




INTRODUCTION
Card & dice game for 2+ players.
Each player is a pawnshop owner.

THE DECK
Players share a common deck.
The deck contains 2 types of cards:
Item cards & Event cards.
Each Item has 3 values: Pawn, Interest Fee, & Sell values.
Note that players do not have ‘hands’. 

WINNING
The first player to accumulate $10,000 is the winner.

PIECES
Keep track of money with paper & pencil.
A six sided die is needed.

SETUP
Each player starts with $1,000.
High roll on the die goes first.

TURN SEQUENCE
Players take turns. 
Each turn has 5 phases:
Interest Phase
Draw Phase
Event Phase
Pawn Phase
Sell Phase

INTEREST PHASE
Roll 1D6 for each item you have in collateral:
1D6	Result:
1-2	Customer pays you the Interest Fee & buys back the Item (at same price)
3-4	Customer pays you the Interest Fee & Item remains in collateral
5-6	Customer doesn’t come back: You own the item
Place items you own in a separate area from your ‘safe’. 

DRAW PHASE
Draw 1D6 – 3 cards from the deck. (This is the Draw Roll)
Ignore negative results (nothing comes in that day)
Cards are played face up onto the middle of the table.

EVENT PHASE
Resolve all Event cards you drew this turn.
Discard event cards after they are resolved.

PAWN PHASE
Each Item card has a pawn value.
Pay this amount out as a loan to keep the item as collateral.
You may make loans on any of the item cards you drew this turn.
You may also make loans on items not taken as collateral by other players.
Discard any items that you’ve passed on twice.
Move the pawned item cards into an area next to you called your ‘safe’. 

SELL PHASE
Roll 1D6 for each item you own:
1D6	Result:
1-4	Nothing happens
5-6	You sell it for its Sale value.
