Po-Rum-Bo is a Poker meets Rummy board game. Create 3 of a kind, 4 of a kind, straights & flushes and criss-cross them on a board.
The Game: 3 of a Kind, 4 of a Kind, Straights & Flushes on a Game Board
Showcased At American International Toy Fair 2012 In New York City

The Plan:
To raise enough capital to fund the production release of Po-Rum-Bo. To create a KICKSTARTER fan base of supporters for Po-Rum-Bo through a tiered reward system. Your support is needed to fund two main costs: the raw material costs and the assembly costs necessary to produce this game. The artwork for the box cover, for the Po-Rum-Bo poker playing cards, for the game board and for the Game Rules is already complete. The Po-Rum-Bo packaging design is also complete, both the box and the tray for the components inside the box. Now we need you.
Enter your pledge NOW, select your reward NOW, and if we meet our goal, then your payment will process NOT NOW, rather on May 28, Memorial Day.
The Bonus Plan:
If $20,000 or more is generated through your support, every single person who contributes $1 or more will receive access to a free Android / iPhone App of Po-Rum-Bo which will be available on or before September 30, 2012.
Po-Rum-Bo is the second game I have invented, designed and will publish so I am very familiar with the steps necessary to create a final product for mass production. All of the components for this game have been sourced and the assembly facility has been chosen. The product is fully designed and is ready for release but Po-Rum-Bo needs your support to launch. Once funds are available, product will follow 60 - 90 days later.

Po-Rum-Bo is a combination of Poker & Rummy played on a Game Board.
The object of the game is to outscore your opponent(s). Players criss-cross playing cards using cards Ace/1 - 10 of all four playing card suits either "across" or "down" on a game board with bonus squares, earning points with every play of the game based on the cards played, the hands created and the board bonus squares used. Jacks, Queens & Kings are wild.

Lastly, Solitaire Po-Rum-Bo is an entirely separate strategy card / board game available for play with the contents of this game. The object of this "1 Player" game is simply to place all 52 playing cards on the 81 square game board before you run out of available plays or space on the board. Place all of the cards on the board and you win. Good luck!!
The 2 decks of Po-Rum-Bo poker playing cards included in this game are standard mini decks of poker playing cards and thus can also be used to play your other favorite card games, Poker & Rummy come to mind.
