About the game
What you do in a play session
Spring has sprung in the garden, and with it comes a bustling ant army ferrying aphid eggs to the prettiest blossoms. In Ladybug Lunch: Ant Antics, each player commands a hungry ant colony tasked with gathering those eggs before they hatch on your cherished flowers. The goal is straightforward: be the first to clear your garden of parasites, but the fun lies in how you assemble your set of egg cards and decide when to unleash surprise cards that can flip the table. The game relies on Set Collection: you gather different egg cards and combine them to score points or block opponents. Printed as a Print & Play deck, the cards feature bright art of ladybugs, ants, and aphids, giving the game a light, whimsical vibe. A single round runs about 25‑35 minutes, perfect for a casual get‑together or a 2‑to‑5 player session. While the rules are easy to pick up, there’s still tactical depth—choosing which eggs to chase, when to sacrifice a flower for a powerful card, and managing your hand. If you love quick card games, have a soft spot for critters, and enjoy building collections, Ladybug Lunch will leave you smiling and eager for the next round.
