About the game
What you do in a play session
Poko Pop! is a fast-paced bluffing card game where 3 to 5 rival thieves compete to snatch treasures from a sleeping museum. Each round, Score Cards are placed next to numbered Poko Cards, with the final treasure face down. Players secretly choose Wait!, Poko!, or Snatch!, then reveal simultaneously. If only one player picks Poko!, they take the treasure and exit the round. But if multiple choose Poko!, chaos ensues with penalties. Snatch! can steal from Poko! players—unless multiple Snatch! cards cancel each other out. The last player standing claims the hidden treasure, and unclaimed loot may roll into a Final Round where one last showdown decides everything. Treasures score points (doubled if they match your character’s Signature Gem), but watch out for penalty cards! Highest score wins.
