Cockroach Poker (Card Game)

Description

Cockroach Poker is a reverse set collection game that has nothing to do withpoker – except that the game is all about bluffing, but with cards that showcockroaches, rats and stink bugs instead of queens, 10s and aces. The goal ofthe game is to force another player to collect 4 of any one type of critter.The deck includes 64 cards, with eight copies of eight types of critters. Toset up the game, shuffle the deck and deal the cards out to players. On a turn,a player takes one card from his hand, lays it face down on the table, slides itto a player of his choice, and declares a type of critter, e.g., “Stinkbug”. The player receiving the card either • Accepts the card, says either“true” or “false”, then reveals the card. If this player is wrong in herclaim, she keeps the card on the table in front of her face up; if she is right,the player who gave her the card places it face up before him. • Peeks at thecard, then passes it face down to another player, either saying the originaltype of critter or saying a new type. This new player again has the choice ofaccepting the card or passing it, unless the card has already been seen by allother players in which case the player must take the first option. The game endswhen a player has no cards to pass on his turn or when a player has four cardsof the same critter on the table in front of him. In either case, this playerloses and everyone else wins.
