About the game

What you do in a play session

Ever tried to clean your house only to find a moose in the kitchen and another in the bathroom? That's the chaotic energy of There's a Moose in the House! This silly, fast-paced card game is all about managing the madness of uninvited guests. Your main goal is to keep the moose out of your own home, while simultaneously trying to dump them on your opponents. It's a hilarious 'pass the problem' style game that keeps everyone on their toes. As you play, you'll manage empty room cards and moose cards that just won't stay put. If luck is on your side, you might deploy a Moose Trap to keep those furry intruders at bay for a bit. If not, you'll be scrambling to use Door cards to seal off empty rooms and prevent more invasions. It's a lighthearted matching game where the strategy is simple, making it perfect for quick laughs and easy learning. With a playtime of roughly 15 minutes, it's the perfect filler for any game night or a quick family gathering. At the end of the chaos, the player with the fewest moose in their house takes the win. It's quick, it's goofy, and it's perfect for a lighthearted break!
