Pump & Dump: A Cyber Greedy Card Game

🔎 The Game at a Glance

Pump & Dump: A Cyber Greedy Card Game is a competitive card game for 2 to 4 players, set in 2088 inside the last stock exchange. Designed by Aurora Lusus and brought to life by the art of Meeple Foundry, it's a game about getting rich fast, at everyone else's expense. A game takes about 25 minutes, and plenty of friendships won't survive it.

Build your portfolio, pump your Assets until they're worth a fortune, then dump your rivals' investments right before they cash out. Play Special Cards to bend the rules your way, and choose how you play across two game modes: Trade and Crash.

Markets will soar. Alliances will collapse. Someone will deeply regret trusting you.

The market is open. Profit isn't earned. It's taken.

🍀 Thank You

It’s been a long road since we started working on Pump & Dump. What began as an idea turned into pages printed at home, a paper trimmer and a lot of afternoons cutting out cards so we could play them that same night.

Prototype zero. Ugly, crooked and absolutely essential.

Behind every card there are countless hours of calls between Nelson and me, arguing over rules, numbers and artwork. Almost always with Marvin crashing the screen to remind us that taking breaks matters too.

Marvin, unofficial team member and attendee of more meetings than anyone

We’ve learned a ton along the way: about design, about manufacturing and about what it really takes to bring a game to life. A big part of that is thanks to Samu and Diana from Meeple Foundry, who believed in Pump & Dump when it was still a hand-cut deck and gave us the chance to get this far.

And we made sure to enjoy the ride. Between playtests and the occasional beer, this project has given us as much as we’ve put into it.

Would we do it all again? In a heartbeat. Hopefully with the same people.

Finally, to everyone who played, tested, broke and gave feedback on every version of the game: Pump & Dump is as much yours as it is ours. Thank you for every game, every suggestion and every “one more round?” ❤️.

🚚 Shipping

** IMAGE WITH SHIPPING COSTS

Shipping is charged separately, via the pledge manager after the campaign ends.

By charging shipping closer to the game's delivery, we use the most up-to-date shipping rates, helping ensure backers pay a fair price. If shipping costs are lower than expected, those savings are passed directly on to you. Estimated shipping is shown above and is based on up-to-date prices from fulfilment partners but is subject to change.

VAT is a sales tax separate from other import taxes or duties. For the UK and EU, we are obliged to collect VAT on the value of the total pledge and shipping amount, according to the VAT rates of each respective country. VAT is calculated and charged in the pledge manager.  

If you have any questions about shipping or fulfilment, please send us an email to info@auroralusus.com (email is easier to track than a Kickstarter message or comment).

At our discretion, we may offer physical errata fix packs in future campaigns, but this is not guaranteed.
