About the game
You've got just one bill to cover all your expenses! Rip Off is an innovative game of visual perception unlike anything you've played before. Each turn you physically rip off a piece off your fake bill to literally cover the objects you want to buy. Make sure the pieces you rip off are just the right size! The more you rip off now, the less you will have to cover future expenses. The player with the biggest bill remaining at the end wins!
