## Description
Poisson Rouge is the kind of game that seems simple until you fall into the first trap. The premise is straightforward: on your turn, you must shout out the colors you see on the cards as fast as possible. But here's the catch — you have to say the color that's actually printed, not the word written. Sounds easy? Wait until your brain freezes trying to separate what you read from what you see! The game is pure fun tension, with everyone laughing at each other's mistakes while piling up cards for hesitating or slipping up. The loser is whoever ends up with the most cards, so the pressure only builds. Perfect for family game night or friends who enjoy a quick mental challenge full of laughs.
