Startups is a fun card game about investing in stocks for small companies looking to make it big. There’s also a healthy dose of push-your-luck going on, as well as hand management and bluffing your opponents. Between 3-7 players can join in, and games last about 20-30 minutes. The box art not only looks funky in lime-green, but it’s also pocket-size. It’s tailor-made for fitting in a quick game during a lunch break!

In Startups, players battle to invest and collect six different companies. Rewards pay out to the majority shareholders of these six at the end. Like real-life stocks and shares, the player with the most money at the end, wins. But, also like real-life stocks and shares, sometimes you have to gamble…

Players start with a hand of three company cards. On your turn, first you draw a card. Then you either discard one to a public draw pile, or keep one in your own tableau, in a set collection fashion. When drawing, you either draw a previously discarded card, or blind from the deck. If you draw blind, you have to pay a coin onto each discarded card. Sometimes its worth picking a discarded card to claim the coins on it!

Once the deck runs out, the majority shareholders earn money. And they earn money off their opponents, who are the minority shareholders! So you’d better be sure that when you do decide to keep a card in your tableau, you’re going to be the leading shareholder…

Designed by Jun Sasaki, Startups comes from popular publisher Oink Games. These two are such a perfect match for each other. Oink Games produce simple board games that pack a big punch into their small boxes. (Each one is about the size of a Ribena carton!) Sasaki is the mastermind behind titles such as Deep Sea Adventure and A Fake Artist Goes To New York. So rest assured, Startups sits among superb company!

Great durable ball
One of my dog’s favorite toy. We have had this ball for almost a year and it is still intact. My Doberman loves it and has not been able to destroy it. The size is comparable to s tenis ball. It has a little weight to it witch makes it easy to trow further.

Best toy I’ve ever gotten for my dog
The toy allows you to interact with your dog in a way that I didn’t realize was so important until I adopted a dog who was ball obsessed and a bit disconnected. We have bonded so much over this toy and it has held up so much better than 95% of the toys I’ve gotten, which have all been labeled as high-quality or durable. It is perfect for playing fetch and for tugging, as well as training. The only thing worth noting is that the rope is thin enough that it can be uncomfortable to tug with a large or strong dog. I usually wrap a leash around my hip and hook it to the rope when we are doing intense tugging (because my 75 pound dog would win otherwise). If you do go for a tug toy that has a more comfortable handle, it will not bounce and be easy for a dog to run around with in the same way. This rope makes the weight heavily in favor of the ball, so it acts more like a ball and the dog is more inclined to grab the ball. I think this toy finds right balance of ball to rope.

So good, I repurchased
This is one of my dog's fave fetch toys, and after losing it in a grassy field, I repurchased. The ball is heavy and durable, and the rope is sturdy and just the right length for flinging. When this comes out, my dog knows we're playing fetch! There's no strange smell out of the package, and while my 70lb Samoyed isn't a hard chewer, he hasn't put a dent or nick in the ball itself. It's not so hard that I'd be worried about him gnawing on it, either.

Great ball much improvement on thr rope
I have to say that I absolutely live this ball. The ball itself is a great sturdy and very tough ball. The rope however needs improved. It should be a much more durable, heavy duty rope. I have 4 large dogs. I do not let them chew this toy we play fetch with it but like any dog they tug (hard) and pull and do chew at it. I do not think that can be avoided, and thr rope doesn't hold up.

Excellent for heavy chewers
Excellent toy for heavy chewers like malinois! The rope makes it easy to throw farther. Good amount of bounce as well. Definitely need to supervise as it could be a choking hazard for larger breeds.
