About the game
Get ready for a tropical, capybara-filled adventure in Capybaraka, a fast-paced and super fun card game! Each round, a number of Zen cards equal to the number of players are revealed in the center of the table. The trick is that each player secretly chooses one of their three Capybara cards. Everyone reveals at the same time, and from highest to lowest number, each player takes a Zen card from the center. It sounds simple, but the tension is real with every choice!
