## Description
Get ready for a trick-taking game that's pure adrenaline and minimalist strategy! In Anaphylaxis, you'll collect valuable bee cards to score points, but beware: if you ever capture the same bee twice, it's anaphylactic shock and immediate elimination, with zero points to your name. It's a brutal test of survival from the very first card, where sharp timing, deadly traps, and ruthless hand-passing set the pace. The game uses a lean 28-card deck, featuring duplicated high-value bees, forcing players to think twice before playing. The goal is to win point cards without duplicating colors and numbers, which can be fatal. Each round offers two "Pass" opportunities, a limited-use mechanic to get rid of dangerous tricks. And there's more: a Pokémon-style weakness system makes certain suits beat others depending on who led the trick. Player hands are manipulated through these card-passing mechanics, and quick knockouts ensure that every decision, whether a tactical sacrifice or a bold move, can be the difference between victory and defeat. The beekeeper with the highest score after a few intense rounds is the master bee keeper!

With simple rules and fast-paced games, Anaphylaxis is perfect for those who enjoy a card game with a touch of risk and plenty of interaction, where one slip-up can cost you dearly. It's the kind of game you play one round and immediately want to play another to try again!
