Nature / Type: Card game
Who would love this: Young kids that enjoy card games with light strategy
Why I love ❤️ it:
(1) Mimic Animal Sounds Fast To Win
Inside the box, you’ll find 5 double-sided Animal cards, 49 colorful number cards (each a unique combo of 1 to 7 and seven colors), 1 Turmoil card, and a rulebook. Everyone picks an Animal card and puts it on display. Shuffle and split the number cards evenly into face-down piles. On your turn, flip the top card of your pile — but stay alert! If your card matches someone else’s by number or color, it’s a race to mimic their animal sound faster than they can mimic yours. The winner hands over their discard pile, and the loser tucks it under their draw stack. Flip the Turmoil card? You get to ditch your discard pile by giving it to everyone else! The game ends when someone runs out of cards or when Turmoil shows up three times.
(2) Sneaky Strategy & Stay Razor Sharp!
There’s sneaky strategy hidden in all that farmyard noise. First, choose your animal wisely. My kids quickly realized that “ribbit” and “hee-haw” are trickier to blurt out than a basic “moo” or “meow,” which makes them perfect for outsmarting your opponents in duels. You’ve got to stay razor-sharp and error-free — even a mistaken squeak when you’re not in a duel means tucking your whole discard pile under your draw stack.
(3) Clever Variant For 2-Players
I love that there’s a clever twist for 2 players! Each player controls two animals, each with its own discard pile. Both players flip cards at the same time and take turns placing them left, right, left, right. When a duel happens, you must mimic the cry of the specific animal tied to the matching card. The loser takes the discard pile linked to that animal only. It’s faster, trickier, and way more intense!
(4) Adorable Artwork
The artwork is adorable — every animal looks hilariously horrified. Some number cards are sneakily similar too: think yellow polka dots vs. pale yellow checks— easy to mix up in the heat of the game. Bonus points for the sturdy box and that goofy cover art!
