About the game

What you do in a play session

Get ready for an epic and hilarious battle in Bears vs. Babies! In this wild card game, you and your friends become monster builders, assembling bizarre and incredible creatures from bear parts and other monstrous bits. The goal? To take on an army of horrifying babies that, let's face it, are scarier than they look. The shared deck is a mix of monster parts and babies. When you draw a part, it goes directly into your personal collection, helping you build your monster. But beware! When the babies appear, things get serious. If you have fewer monster parts than the number of attacking babies, your monster gets devoured, and you're left behind. Those with more robust monsters can defeat the babies and score points. It's a fast-paced game full of twists and that 'take that' element everyone loves. Perfect for livening up any gathering with guaranteed laughs and a bit of strategic chaos. The art is super fun, and the theme, despite being bizarre, is what gives it its special charm. Gather your friends, build your weirdest monsters, and show these babies who's boss!
