Not everyone in the office works all the time. Constant temptations arise to bother other co-workers with business-related matters, sit around the coffee machine chatting, or simply fritter away time taking care of personal e-mails and surfing the internet.

In Office Dodger each player is a  white-collar worker at a large corporation. They decide how to spend their time -- working, slacking, chatting, or pestering others -- all while avoiding the attentions of the boss and trying to accumulate Dodger Points.

Each turn players place a card face-down that represents their activity that turn: work, pester, chat, or slack. But the boss can unexpectedly arrive in their cubicle and foil their plans. Revealing cards garners some players Dodger Points, while others adversely affect their co-workers' activities. This cutthroat bluffing game is perfect for a quick diversion or an entire evening's  play.

Besides the rules and cards you can download and print, you'll also need a six-sided die, a generic pawn to represent the boss, and counters to keep track of each player's accumulated Dodger Points.

   "This is called a Griffin because it is a winged quadruped. This kind of wild animal is born in Hyperborean parts, or in mountains. All its bodily members are like a lion's, but its wings and mask are like an eagle's. It is vehemently hostile to horses. But it will also tear to pieces any human beings which it happens to come across." 

-- The Book of Beasts, translated by T.H. White
