Yorsh is a board game released in 2013 for 4–9 players, 20 minutes per game, and ages 18 and up. It was designed by Dmitry Kibkalo and its main mechanics are Push Your Luck.
Yorsh is a liquor game helping to have a great time in a group. Inside the box there are task and bonus cards. The main principle is as follows: you either complete the task or you drink. Bonuses are for making tasks harder or easier. During the set you will have to propose toastes with difficult words, remember car brands, football players and countiers, give a massage and swap clothes, text “I'm pregnant. What now?” to a random number, drink two glasses simultaneously, drink while jumping, drink upside down etc. All in all, you are going to have a great party. Points for tasks written in the corner of the cards. The player with the most points at the end of the game wins.
Yorsh supports 4–9 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 Yorsh is 20 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 Yorsh for ages 18 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.
Yorsh has a complexity rating of 1.0 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.
