About the game
What you do in a play session
Have you ever imagined turning a rather uncomfortable medical condition into a fast-paced and hilarious card game? In Pass The Stones, the goal is to be the last player with a clean gallbladder, while you do your best to clog up your friends' with stones. It is that classic 'take that' chaos we love at parties, where strategy is just as important as the ability to laugh at your own misfortune. The core mechanic revolves around hand management: you must decide exactly which card to use to get rid of stones, pass the problem along, or even clear your own system. Beyond the cards you control, there is an event deck called 'STONES' that enters the mix to mess with everyone's life at the table, ensuring no one stays comfortable for long. Since the game features player elimination, the tension rises as the game progresses and gallbladders get overwhelmed. It is a quick game, ideal for those moments when you want something simple, direct, and not afraid to be a bit acidic in its humor. With games lasting under 10 minutes, it is the perfect filler to warm up the group before a heavier game or to close the night on a high note. Get ready to see your friends desperate to get rid of those stones while you plan the perfect attack. If you enjoy games that do not take themselves too seriously, have an unusual theme, and guarantee good laughs with direct interactions, Pass The Stones is the right choice for your collection. It is simple to explain, quick to play, and above all, a chaotic and very fun experience for groups of up to 6 people. Just do not take it personally when someone decides your gallbladder is the target of the day!
