Influencers in the Wild is a board game that turns social media culture into a fun, interactive experience.
Players take on the role of influencers, starting with a set number of followers and moving around the board by rolling dice.
Along the way, they complete challenges, answer questions, and pick up bonus or penalty cards to grow their following.
The game includes tasks like performing fun activities or answering questions about other players to gain more followers.
There’s also an option to share videos of these tasks on Influencers in the Wild’s social media, adding a playful connection to real-life influencer trends.

However, the Sharks raise concerns when they hear he has only sold 1,500 games, despite being in 1,900 stores.
Kevin O’Leary warns that low sales could get him dropped by retailers. Tank admits his $5 million valuation isn’t based on real numbers, which worries the sharks further.
He produces the game for $4.97 to $5.47 per unit, depending on volume, and retails it for $30. It wholesales for $13.31 per unit but has not yet been sold directly to consumers.
Mark Cuban says the valuation makes no sense and goes out.
Kevin agrees, saying most games fail, and he won’t invest. Lori Greiner, Barbara, and Daymond John also pass, citing the high valuation.
In the end, Tank leaves without a deal, and the sharks believe the business needs more time to prove itself.
Without any offers, Tank was forced to leave without a deal. What happened next? Keep reading our Influencers in the Wild update to find out.
