Maccabees

A Chanuka-themed game that uses a dreidel in place of a four-sided die. Players spin the dreidel, draw or return cards to a common pool, and move around the six points of a Magen David. Each space provides a different action, while cards can modify movement. The objective is to be the first player to fill all eight spaces of a menorah with candles. Actions allow players to gain candles or attempt to take them from opponents, with failed attempts potentially costing candles instead.

    Surprisingly fun for what was bought as basically a joke game.
