Tarantula Tango
In stock at the following stores: Games København, Games Aarhus
The game consists of 120 animal cards (dog, cow, donkey, goat, cat, parrot and 5 special tarantula cards).
Each player is dealt a number of cards and forms their own stack face down. The aim of the game is to get rid of their cards as quickly as possible. To do this, the cards are placed clockwise around a five-sided Tarantula tile in the middle of the table.
Before the player turns over the top card from their stack, they may have to imitate the animal on the previous player's card (by saying "woof", "eeee", etc.). This depends on some features of the previous card: if it shows one or two spiders, the player must "imitate" once or twice, otherwise they must remain silent.
Then the player must place their top card in the next space clockwise around the Tarantula tile, except when there are two animals on the previous card. Then the new card is placed in the next space after that... All within a time limit of a maximum of 2 seconds.
And finally, if the new card is a Tarantula, all players must slam their hand down on the table (to "chase it away").
If someone makes a mistake or is too slow, they must take all the cards on the table into their own stack and a new round begins.
Several additional expert rules make getting rid of the cards even more complicated and provoke more errors, for example, cards must be placed on previous donkeys because they are too stubborn to move on, or curious dogs change the direction of card placement (clockwise to counterclockwise and vice versa).
