Overview

What ABG knows about this game

The second edition of JamSumo now supports up to 5 players. New Features: Circular board. 5 platforms that can be removed and positioned to accommodate the various player counts. Each player receives 5 dice. In ’Jam‘ the platforms have a new 'JAM line' which keeps the hole at a distance of 11cm so the 'hole in 1' shot is just as elusive. In ’Sumo’ the platforms include a 'protection pier' which will protect you from a 'blast' shot from a ‘kamikaze’ neighbour.
