Articles, reviews, and previews
“The capybara may be one of the internet’s favourite chill animals, but in this Canberra-made card game, it’s facing off against one of Lake Burley Griffin’s longest residents, the pelican.”
“A delightful little filler game in the same class as Skull and other quick bluffing games. An instant classic.”
“Honestly, we can’t think of anything we didn’t like! This game was an absolute hit for us. 5/5 rainbows.”
“It’s packed with laugh, groans, and cheers as the capybara cards bounce around the table.”
“The art is hilarious and packed with personality. The icons are clear making it accessible for younger players. Great for those times when you just want one more round.”
“The game rules are really simple, it takes a minute to learn and setup is so quick too. You get playing almost instantly!”
