About the game

What you do in a play session

Get ready for an insect showdown in "Murray the A**hole Frog"! In this fast-paced and fun game, you'll assemble your own army of insects, combining flies, wasps, and other creepy crawlies to form the most powerful swarms. But beware, because Murray, a hungry frog, is on the loose and loves to gobble up your hard-earned points! Each turn, you decide whether to risk more for new cards or play it safe with what you have in hand. The goal is to rack up points with your swarms, but also keep an eye on other players to use Murray to your advantage and destroy their collections. Each insect has its own value and special abilities, and combining the right ones can lead to a high score. However, when Murray attacks, he leaves a trail of tadpoles that also count towards points – and these little points can snowball quickly! The arrival of a hawk signals the beginning of the game's end, so you'll need strategy to maximize your score before it's all over. "Murray the A**hole Frog" is a delightful mix of set collection and "take that" gameplay, where luck and cunning go hand in hand. Perfect for those who enjoy a light game with direct interaction and unexpected twists. Prepare to laugh, get a little stressed, and maybe even become the master of swarms and destruction!
