About the game
Jusayo is a fast-paced hand management and deduction game where the goal is to avoid playing your own cards by forcing others to play theirs. Players move a meeple across the colour board, and on their turn, they must either play a card matching the current colour, request a card from an opponent ("Jusayo"), or call someone out ("Bet you can’t"). Strategic depth comes from Double Colour Cards, which act as two colours and immediately shift the meeple to a new space, potentially disrupting the next player's plans. The tension lies in the risk of elimination: if you request a card and the target cannot play, or if you call someone out and they can play, you are knocked out of the round. Conversely, being called out when you have no playable cards also results in elimination. The round continues until only one player remains, who then flips their victory card to the "flower" side. The first person to survive two rounds wins the game. —description from the publisher

Questions and answers
Jusayo supports 3–5 players according to the catalogue. This range comes from the publisher’s listed player count, so the game can be set up for any group size within it. Some setups, rules and scoring details may still vary by player count, so check your edition’s rulebook for the exact configuration.
The listed playing time for Jusayo is 15 minutes. This is the publisher’s estimate for a full game. The actual duration depends on the group, the player count and familiarity with the rules: first sessions usually run longer, while experienced groups often finish faster. Setup and teaching time are not included in this estimate.
The catalogue lists Jusayo for ages 8 and up. This is the publisher’s recommendation and reflects reading demands, rule complexity and small components rather than theme alone. Younger players can often join with help from an adult, so check the age guidance on your edition and consider your group’s experience with board games.
Jusayo has a complexity rating of 1.5 out of 5 from BoardGameGeek players, which makes it a light game. The rating reflects how much rules knowledge, planning and decision-making a typical game demands. Expect a longer first teach for heavier games, and use a preparation guide before game night.
