Monster Max
A frantic real-time matching game in which players race to rebuild a constantly changing monster. Each round, a monster card shows a target configuration, and everyone simultaneously searches their own pieces to recreate it, matching each piece’s position, side, orientation, and total number. When a player believes their monster is complete, they slap the card to stop the round. The creations are checked, and the player with the most correctly positioned pieces takes the card. The first player to collect five cards wins.
