About the game
What you do in a play session
Get ready for a goblin chaos invasion in Card Goblins! This card game puts you in charge of a horde of chaotic green creatures, aiming to become the ultimate Goblin King. The mission is straightforward: accumulate 3 victory points before your rivals do. How? By collecting treasures scattered on the table. But don't think it's easy! You'll need to assemble your goblin army to invade and loot, but beware: other players are also eyeing those treasures and might snatch what you need to win.
Card Goblins is pure, no-nonsense fun. It uses just two decks – one for treasures and one for goblins – and everything you need to play is in the box. It's a fast-paced game, ideal for those who enjoy a bit of 'take that' gameplay, where interaction is direct and a little bit devious, but always with a touch of humor. Perfect for anyone who wants an lively game session without spending hours learning complex rules. If you like card games with a fun theme and mechanics that allow for lighthearted player interference, Card Goblins might become your new favorite. The race to be the Goblin King is on, and only one can reign supreme!
