Official Description (Ad Blurb)


Roll into the town of Brantford and discover a board game like no other. Gather a team of 4 players - friends and/or AIs - and battle the jungle creatures sent forth by Jumanji. It’s a bright, fun experience that delivers combined elements of board game with card matching and time-attack style gameplay. Work fast, matching item cards with the dangers, to scare elephants, lions, rhinos and more back into the board. It’s an unforgettable co-op adventure.


The Jumanji board game contains a mysterious jungle. With every roll of the dice you allow more of the jungle to escape into the world. The only way to stop the Jumanji invasion for good is to finish the game, and you’ll have to battle a whole host of creatures, plants and even the hunter, Van Pelt, along the way.

Test your skills
If you don’t win within the time limit, Jumanji will permanently claim a section of the town.

  • Roll the dice and read the riddle that appears in the center of the board.
  • Stand together and face the creatures and plants Jumanji sends into the world to stop you from finishing the game.
  • Cycle through your deck to find and match the items indicated above each danger, and banish them back into the board.
  • Use the correct items to free your friends from twisting jungle vines.
  • Manage token power-ups - your token will charge whenever you use a magical item. When it’s fully charged you can use it against any danger, or banish Van Pelt in a single move.
  • Apply bonus abilities: gain time bonuses that add valuable seconds to your fight, and team-up points when you help a friend escape vines or gift magical objects. The more you work together, the more likely you are to get a Team-Up All-Out Attack!
  • Collect gems as you travel around the board and choose from a range of magical abilities, including extra Team-Up points when helping friends, reduced damage when taking a hit from Van Pelt, and the ability to deal extra damage when battling vines!

Cooperate
Your team will face more than one threat in every round. While you battle jungle creatures, twisting vines will try to ensnare you and your friends, and you’ll have to help each other to escape. If the board game releases the hunter, Van Pelt, you’ll also need to dodge his attacks! Work together to keep everyone in the game.

Team up
One of you must reach the center of the board to win the game, and it will take the whole team to get that far. If you have fewer players, AI companions will join to complete your team. Have fun and banish the jungle together!

Anyone can play
It’s so quick and easy to pick up, anyone can play! Join your friends online, gather around the digital board, and start your adventure.
