Next Day!

Description

Next Day! is a 3–6 player cooperative party game where players attempt to deliver packages and complete challenges! As a team, players must deliver 100 points' worth of packages by going to their respective addresses on the board. Individually, players must get the most amount of D.I.K. points. This is achieved by secretly completing challenges. Players take turns driving the van to achieve these objectives. A turn (driving the van) consists of picking up 4 time tokens and spending those tokens on actions: moving the van on the board, drawing a D.I.K card, repairing the van, or collecting a new package. Each package has one or more events that correspond to the package; when covered by a time token, the driver fetches that event and reads it aloud. 3 options are presented, and the driver must choose one. Then the outcome is read aloud, and played out (lose time, damage the van, etc.). D.I.K cards are challenges that players must do secretly during the game. These can include singing, dancing, insulting each other, etc. If a player notices another player doing a D.I.K, they can wager one of their own D.I.Ks and try to guess it. If successful, they claim the other players' D.I.K and keep the points; if not, they lose their wagered D.I.K. The game ends when the team either reaches 100 points, destroys the van, or runs out of time on four packages. —description from the designer
