Vau

"Adopt and love forever!" – this is the slogan of Vau, which highlights the importance of dog adoption and responsible pet ownership. Shuffle the shelter cards and place them face down in a stack. Action cards are also shuffled, and each player is dealt 5 cards, with the remaining cards forming a draw pile. Each turn consists of two phases: first, the player performs an action, then draws a card from the action card pile. Players can choose one of the following actions during their turn: play a treat or a dog trap action card, adopt a dog for 3 bone coins or 4 love cards (by drawing the top card from the shelter pile), place a love card under an adopted dog, or discard a card and draw a new one (without activating the discarded card's action). At the end of the turn, played cards are placed in the discard pile unless specified otherwise, and players always draw one card from the action card pile. The shelter pile contains cards representing dogs available for adoption, and players need to adopt 5 dog cards to win. Simply adopting a dog isn't enough; players must also show love to their pets. Some dog cards have special (one time or permanent) abilities that activate upon adoption. Bone coins are used to adopt dogs from the shelter, while love cards can be used to adopt dogs (4 cards required) or to show affection to existing pets. Treat cards provide one-time benefits to the player, while dog trap cards can hinder other players. The "Not Allowed!" card can be played in response to another player’s action, negating that action. The game ends when a player has successfully cared for 5 adopted dogs in their yard, making them the winner.
