    InAdulthood, 1 to 4 players compete — or coexist — forbuild the most fulfilling life possible.

    Each shift represents a fragment of existence: work, relationships, health, experiences and unexpected events intertwine in a delicate balance betweenTime, Energy, Money and Happiness.

    The aim of the game isbring your Happiness and Impact tracks together: when they touch, you have finally found your balance in adult life.

    Seeking Experiencesto earnHappiness and new skills.


    Investing in Health and Wellbeingto improve the effectiveness of your future actions.


    Cultivate relationshipsand maybefind a partner, which offers you bonuses or emotional synergies.



  3. Deal with life events

    In each round, they can occurLife Events, unforeseen events that test your resource management:

    illnesses, unexpected expenses, strokes of luck or unique opportunities.

    You will have to constantly adapt,deciding whether to react with pragmatism or follow one's heart—every choice changes the course of your life.

  4. Choose your style of success

    This represents the moment when your life has found harmony betweenpersonal success, relationships and meaning.

🧠 Adulthood – Cresci, scegli e sopravvivi (possibilmente felice)

Il gioco da tavolo che trasforma la vita adulta in una sfida strategica tra sogni, stress e realismo.

La sveglia suona. Hai tre scelte: colazione, lavoro o rimettere la testa sotto al cuscino. In Adulthood, ogni turno è una piccola fetta di vita: devi decidere come usare il tuo tempo, la tua energia e i tuoi sogni. Ma non basta sopravvivere: devi trovare la felicità, quella che bilancia ambizione e serenità.

Ti innamori, cambi lavoro, provi un corso di yoga (che non segui mai fino in fondo), e nel frattempo cerchi di dare un senso al tutto. Ogni carta è un episodio quotidiano — un’esperienza, un’occasione, un imprevisto — che costruisce il tuo percorso personale.

Alla fine non vince chi guadagna di più, ma chi riesce a far incontrare Felicità e Impatto, le due strade che definiscono il senso dell’essere adulti.

💼 Ambizione o equilibrio?

Ogni turno è una scelta: lavorare di più o vivere meglio?

💘 Relazioni o carriera?

Non puoi avere tutto. Ma puoi decidere cosa conta davvero.

☕ Felicità a tempo limitato

Ogni decisione lascia un segno. Sbaglia pure, ma impara a ridere.

“La vita è un gioco di scelte, e ogni turno conta più di quanto sembri.”

🕒 Gestione della vita, del tempo e delle priorità: il puzzle dell’età adulta

Adulthood è un gioco da tavolo tematico per 1–4 giocatori ideato da Johnny O’Neal e pubblicato da Brotherwise Games, che trasforma la quotidianità in una vera sfida di equilibrio strategico. Ogni turno, i giocatori devono gestire risorse come Tempo, Energia e Denaro per costruire una vita soddisfacente. Scegli un lavoro, coltiva relazioni, investi nella salute mentale e fisica, e affronta imprevisti che metteranno alla prova le tue scelte.

Le illustrazioni di Tim Brierly rendono ogni situazione vivida e ironica, riflettendo con leggerezza le difficoltà della vita adulta. L’obiettivo non è solo guadagnare o vincere, ma far coincidere i tracciati di Happiness e Impact, simbolo di un’esistenza piena di significato. Con la sua combinazione di gestione risorse e storytelling moderno, Adulthood è perfetto per chi cerca un gioco intelligente, accessibile e sorprendentemente vicino alla realtà.

💡 Tema universale e brillante

Affronta la vita reale con ironia e profondità.

🎲 Scelte sempre diverse

Nessuna partita segue lo stesso percorso.

⚖️ Equilibrio perfetto

Capisci il valore del tempo come in nessun altro gioco.

🎨 Estetica moderna

Artwork che raccontano emozioni quotidiane.

🔁 Alta rigiocabilità

Ogni carriera o evento riscrive la tua storia.

🧍‍♂️ Giocabile anche in solitario

Vivere (e sopravvivere) da soli non è mai stato così realistico.

🌀 MECCANICA CON SENSO – “IL CICLO DELLA VITA”

La meccanica principale di Adulthood ruota attorno alla gestione simultanea di Tempo, Energia e Denaro. Ogni turno diventa una micro-decisione su cosa conti davvero: lavorare per aumentare le entrate, o dedicarsi alla salute e alle relazioni per mantenere equilibrio?

Le carte Esperienza e Evento aggiungono colpi di scena che simulano imprevisti o opportunità di crescita, mentre la doppia progressione su Happiness e Impact premia le scelte a lungo termine. Questa struttura trasforma la simulazione della vita in un sistema strategico elegante e profondamente umano, dove ottimizzare non basta: bisogna capire chi si vuole diventare.
