Description
In Crab Stack, you'll be representing a family of crabs trying to become the top crab by stacking on top of others. The game starts with each player's nine crabs, consisting of three large, three medium, and three small, placed in random locations on the game board. On each turn, you'll move one of your crabs, with the size of the crab determining how many spaces you can move. The goal is to land on top of another crab of the same size or smaller, pinning it and preventing it from moving. Be careful not to split the group of crabs, or the smaller group will be washed away. The game is easy to learn and plays quickly, lasting around 20 minutes. The last player to make a move wins, so strategy and clever movement are key to coming out on top in this fun and competitive game for 2 to 4 players.
