ant to play a completely wild card game? Then try Wild Cards, a fast game where players collect blocky beasts to earn the most points.
Each player begins the game with a hand of habitat cards and a replenishment card. Each turn, a number of animal cards are placed face-up on the table. With cards from their hand, players can “bid” on these wild animals. The player who plays the highest numbered card may take his or her “prey” first. Actually, the players are the real wild animals in this game… A player has to play as many cards from his hand as the number of the offered card. So if you play a high card, your hand will be emptied much faster. If you want new cards in your hand, you have to play your replenishment card and you can’t bid during that round.
If you pay off your new pet exclusively with cards that match the habitat of the chosen animal, you will receive bonus points. If you have the most cards of a certain type of animal, you will receive a leader card with an extra special effect.
Wild Cards is a fun, fast and wild game with artwork from the same illustrator as the cool card game CuBirds. Wild Cards is easy to explain and offers plenty of strategy for rematches. You have to be efficient and tactical to win. At the end of the game you get points for your collected animals, leader cards and collected bonus points. The player with the most points wins and may call himself the alpha animal. The other players are only allowed to collect tame animals at the petting zoo.
