Capybaraka
Capybaraka A is a tropical, fast-paced, and delightfully cheeky card game. Each turn, as many Zen cards as there are players are revealed in the center. Each player secretly chooses one of their 3 Capybara cards, everyone reveals at the same time, and then from the highest to the lowest number, each player takes a card from the center. A constant dilemma: aim for balance (stay as close to 0 as possible), grab watermelons (+1 per watermelon), and collect Fiesta cards (increasing bonus). End of round: score = Watermelons + Fiesta - distance from 0. The game is played over 2 rounds with a swap of decks. Each Capybara deck is unique (numbers 1 to 72 distributed differently), so there are no ties during reveals. Ultra-accessible rules, tension with every choice, chill & fun theme: after two rounds, the player with the highest total wins and becomes the most zen capybara in the jungle. —description from the publisher (translated) Capybaraka est un jeu de cartes tropical, rapide et délicieusement taquin. À chaque tour, on révèle au centre autant de cartes Zen qu’il y a de joueurs. Chacun choisit secrètement l’une de ses 3 cartes Capybara, on révèle en même temps, puis du plus grand au plus petit numéro, chaque joueur prend une carte au centre. Dilemme permanent : viser l’équilibre (rester au plus près de 0), rafler des pastèques (+1 par pastèque) et collectionner les Fiesta (bonus croissant). Fin de manche : score = Pastèques + Fiesta – écart à 0. La partie se joue en 2 manches avec échange des paquets. Chaque paquet Capybara est unique (numéros 1 à 72 distribués différemment), donc aucune égalité lors des révélations. Règles ultra accessibles, tension à chaque choix, thème chill & fun : après deux manches, le joueur au total le plus élevé gagne et devient le capybara le plus zen de la jungle. —description from the publisher
