Stop talking about entrepreneurship.
Start playing it.

Most entrepreneurship games feel like homework.

  • Templates
  • Worksheets
  • Business models
  • Endless brainstorming
  • Overthinking
  • No real pressure

PITCH OFF gives you 30 seconds.

  1. You draw a problem.
  2. The clock starts.
  3. You invent the business.
  4. You pitch it.
  5. Everyone votes.

30 seconds to invent.
A lifetime to regret.

The clock starts the moment you flip the hourglass. You pitch, you sweat, your friends decide. No notes. No slides. No second takes.

Every turn is a new startup.

Six core mechanics designed to make every round feel like a fresh first-day-at-YCombinator moment. Fast, social, and slightly unhinged.

30-second pitches.

Think fast. Explain the product, customer and business model before the clock runs out. Hesitate and you lose the room.

Real investors.

Your friends decide whether your idea deserves their investment. They're ruthless. They have snack money to lose.

One deck. Four levels.

Every card is color-coded by difficulty. Stack the deck with easy wins, or gamble on a black FLASH card for four points in fifteen seconds.

No homework.

No notebooks. No slides. No business-plan templates. Just a problem, a pitch and a vote.

Built for chaos.

4–8 players. Everyone gets a turn. Nobody knows what problem comes next. Side bets encouraged.

First to 15 wins.

Collect investment cards, accumulate points, and become the ultimate entrepreneur. The rest of you are Series B founders at best.

Four moves.
Thirty seconds.
Endless chaos.

  1. Draw

    Take the top card. Read the problem out loud. Panic internally.

  2. Think

    You have 30 seconds. Flip the hourglass. The room goes quiet.

  3. Pitch

    Explain your business. The product. The customer. The model. Go.

  4. Invest

    Everyone votes: INVEST or PASS. Cash or silence. The room decides.

3...2...1...INVEST!

Everything you need to start a company in 30 seconds.

Questions before you pitch.

What is PITCH OFF?

A fast, competitive party card game. You draw a random problem, invent a business in 30 seconds, pitch it out loud, and your friends vote to invest or pass.

How many players, and how long does a game take?

4 to 8 players. A game takes 20 to 30 minutes.

Do I need to know anything about business?

No. If you can talk for 30 seconds, you can play. No writing, no drawing, no prep.

How do you win?

Every card is worth 1 to 4 points depending on its difficulty. You only score if the majority of the table invests in your pitch. First to 15 points wins.

What's in the box?

150 color-coded challenge cards, a 30-second hourglass, a quick rules card and a rigid game box.
