Description

Straw is a fun and light-hearted card game set in the world of Arabian Nights, where 2 to 6 players take turns trying to load up a camel with as many items as possible. The goal is to pack the camel without breaking its back, but be careful not to get too close to the limit. The simple rules make it easy to jump into the game, and with a playtime of just 30 minutes, you can fit in a round or two without a big time commitment. As you play, you'll need to manage your hand carefully and push your luck to win. Designed by Richard James and first published in 2006, Straw is a great base game for families or casual gamers. With its unique blend of hand management and push your luck mechanics, it's a game that's all about finding the right balance and having a good time.
