This will be either the developers or the PM team claiming the credit.Who will be the hero of the day? And which team will be remembered by history? It’s all up to you and your friends to decide!

How to play:
First - gather 5 to 10 friends or colleagues
Draw your role and keep it secret until the end of the game! Are you a developer or a manager? The others will judge you by your actions, not just by what you are saying!
Pick-cards
Then: You are the one in charge of who is taking part in the release or not! But you also need to win the trust of the rest of the players that you are leading them to the win...
Pick-a-team
Now vote! The twist of the game is executing the sprint. Is it successful thanks to the effort of the development or management team?
Hint: developers trust only other developers. managers know someone needs to "manage the resources"
If the developers execute 3 successful sprints they win! Unless! The managers guess correctly who the CTO is. Then they win!

The gameplay is extremely addicting because the longer you play, the more you fall into it and the more intense the game gets.
