Awimbawé
Players duel for the throne of the savannah by using animal cards to win tricks and collect crowns while avoiding hyenas. Each round uses a small deck of numbered animal cards plus special eagle cards; players manage a hand, four face-up piles, and face-down cards that are revealed as play progresses. On a lead, any available card may be played and the opponent must follow suit if possible, otherwise they must play an eagle or any card. Tricks are resolved by suit and rank, with special eagle resolutions that can either flee or win; collected cards determine crown totals and hyena captures. A round ends when a player collects four hyenas (an immediate loss) or when all cards are played; the first to win two rounds takes the game.
