About the game

What you do in a play session

Hey folks! Ready for another round of animal mayhem at Beasty Bar? The 'New Beasts in Town' expansion brings twelve all-new beasts with fresh, unique powers to shake up the queue at the hottest bar in the gaming world. And the best part? You can play with just these new characters or mix them all up with the base game for an even more chaotic and challenging experience. The goal remains the same: be clever enough to stay at the front of the line and secure your spot at the party. Pay attention, because when you combine both games, the strategy shifts slightly. Each player builds two decks of 12 cards, one for each round, adding an extra layer of planning (or desperation!) when deciding what to save for later. It's a fast-paced, straightforward game packed with 'take that' elements to make the match more exciting. Perfect for those who enjoy lighthearted conflict, with cards and a fun theme of anthropomorphic animals. Get ready to see who the true king of the jungle (or the bar line) is!
