Description

Monkey is a fast-paced and goofy card game where up to 4 players, or even just 1 in solitaire mode, take on the role of monkeys trying to escape the hazardous spells of Kurgill the Wizard. The game is easy to learn and can be played in 30 to 60 minutes, making it a great option for families. Each player starts at the bottom of the collective Tree and must climb to the top by combining cards from their hand to exceed the number on each Tree card, while also navigating the challenges of color matching. As players climb, they must also contend with the Spell Deck, which can either harm or help them, and use their Action Points to draw cards, climb, or set traps to impede their opponents. With three variations, including Insane Mode and Super-Tree, the game offers plenty of opportunities for replayability and excitement. Designed by Rob Gosselin and published in 2016, Monkey is a fun and entertaining game that is quick to pick up and always engaging.
