Description

Get ready for a wild and wacky head-to-head contest with Varmints, the ultimate game of trash-can raiding and critter chaos. In this quick and easy-to-learn game, designed by David Rose and released in 2023, two players go toe-to-toe as they try to outmaneuver each other and devour all the trash in the neighborhood. With a playtime of just 15 to 30 minutes, Varmints is the perfect game for a fun and frantic filler session. The rules are simple to pick up, but don't be fooled - this game is all about strategic critter placement and clever card play. As you populate the alleys with your fluffy and adorable pests, you'll need to use all your wits to defend your own trash bins and raid those of your opponent. With a range of tricky abilities and sneaky tactics at your disposal, you'll need to swoop, sneak, and scurry your way to dumpster-diving dominance. The game is divided into day and night phases, with players trading actions and trying to outmaneuver each other in a series of intense and hilarious showdowns. Will you emerge victorious, with the fullest belly and the most scraps, or will your opponent outsmart you and leave you in the dust? There's only one way to find out - gather a friend, grab a copy of Varmints, and get ready to join the critter chaos.
