In Hooyah: Navy Seals Card Game, you and your teammates step into the shoes of elite Navy SEALs on high-stakes special ops missions. The tension is constant, as you'll face not just terrorists or insurgents, but also the hostile environment itself—whether in the ocean's depths or the scorching heat of a merciless desert. The real challenge lies in the unpredictability: hidden snipers, booby-trapped explosives, and various unknown threats can emerge at any moment to derail your plan. This is a purely cooperative game, meaning the team either completes the mission successfully or everyone loses together. To win, the group must work in perfect harmony, combining elite marksman skills and strategic tactics to gather all necessary resources. You'll need to collect the specific skill and equipment cards required for each operation before time runs out. If anyone falls in combat or the clock hits zero, the mission is a failure. The gameplay involves careful resource management and the strategic use of special powers unique to each operator. Success depends on precise planning and perfect timing, but don't be fooled: even the best plan can be jeopardized by unexpected events thrown your way. If you enjoy fast-paced, intense card games that require constant communication among players to avoid disaster, Hooyah is a fantastic choice for your next game night. ## FAQ ### How long does a game last?
