Newsboys / ニュースボーイ is a flip-and-roll-and-write game for 1-4 players about paperboys in Brooklyn, New York in the 1890s.

During the game, you mark Xs on your player board with a pen to gradually expand your newspaper delivery area. Each turn, someone flips the top card of the deck to reveal three icons, and each player rolls their three dice; each player then chooses one icon and marks off as many of those spaces on their board as the number of icons visible on the cards and their dice.

Earn icons from blocks of different types such as offices, homes, school, factories, and shops. Earn points in the game (and at game's end) for expanding your delivery area faster than the other players. However, if you don't demand higher wages through strikes, then all your work will earn you less.

Whoever earns the most points wins.

Elizabeth ★★★★★

The flip-and-roll-and-write loop is so clever—I’ve already played three rounds back-to-back. Marking Xs with a pen on the player board feels tactile in a way that really sells the 1890s paperboy theme, and the solo mode is a nice bonus.

Miles P. ★★★★★

I love how the flip-and-roll mechanic keeps you on your toes, marking Xs on the player board while trying to outrun the competition as a 1890s paperboy. The game plays smoothly for 1-4 players, and the Brooklyn theme adds a nice touch of history.
