JAB: Realtime Boxing

About this board game

JAB: Realtime Boxing is a skill-centric strategic boxing card game for 2 players that plays in about 15 minutes. With no turns, both boxers act in real time, creating a tense contest of timing, decision-making, and focus.

In JAB, you get direct control over your boxer’s fists. The game aims to deliver an experience as close as possible to real boxing without getting punched in the face, challenging you to respond quickly while staying composed in a chaotic situation.

There are two ways to win. You can pursue a knockout by throwing staggering haymakers until your opponent eats canvas. Alternatively, you can take a more technical approach and win more rounds than your opponent by impressing the judges with beautiful technique.

• Real-time play: There are no turns, so the action unfolds continuously.
• Direct control: Make decisions for your boxer’s fists during the fight.
• Two paths to victory: Seek a knockout or outscore your opponent across the rounds.
• Focus under pressure: Calmly manage your attention while the match becomes chaotic.

JAB is designed to innovate within the real-time game genre. Rather than simply recognizing patterns or performing calculations, players must remain constantly engaged and keep making decisions throughout the bout.

Whether you are looking for a dramatic knockout or prefer to win through controlled technique, JAB: Realtime Boxing turns a short card game into an intense test of skill, concentration, and strategic choice.
