Dude Perfect: The Board Game Gameplay

Turn Sequence (“It’s My Turn”)

  1. Roll the dice. Move your Dude pawn forward the number of spaces shown.
  2. Carry out the board space action. Follow the instructions of the space where you land.
  3. Make a play (optional). After resolving the board space, you may perform one play per turn:
    • Trade in 3 matching Dude cards (or 2 + 1 Panda card) for a Golden Boy.
    • Use an Action Card (e.g., Steal a Golden Boy, Spin That Wheel).
  4. End your turn. Pass the dice to the player on your left.

Board Space Actions

  • STEAL – Take a random card from another player’s hand.
  • ROLL AGAIN – Roll again and move forward, but do not carry out the action of the new space.
  • BATTLE (Football, Basketball, or Golf) – Challenge a player in a mini-game. Winner steals a random card from the loser.
  • DRAW – Draw 1 card from the pile, then decide if you want to make a play.
  • RAGE MONSTER – Discard 1 Golden Boy.
  • HIGH ROLLER – Roll off against another player. Highest die roll wins and steals a random card.
  • COLLECT ALL – Take all cards of a specific Dude type from all players.
  • TRADE – Pick another player and swap one card each (chosen by each player).
  • SWAP PLACES – Switch your pawn with another player’s pawn. Do not resolve the new space. If you pass “Spin That Wheel” on the diagonal, draw 2 cards.
  • GOLDEN BOY – Immediately collect 1 Golden Boy.
  • SPIN THAT WHEEL – Spin the Wheel of Consequences and carry out the result.

How to Win
