Book Hero thinking about your next read

Book Hero Magic formatted this description to make it easier to read. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! Description

A collaboration from Punderdome cocreator Jo Firestone and former Tonight Show games producer Josh Knapp, this fast-paced card game provides two to five players with bunches of fun!

Fruits is no ordinary card game. This juicy twist on fast-paced favourites like Uno and Gin Rummy is chock-full of cheerful claymation art and surprising disruptors to keep you on your toes.

Players will encounter ten types of personality-packed Fruits cards of varying point values and must harvest "bunches" of three or more to earn points. Along the way, action cards will come into play, either multiplying players' successes or thwarting their efforts to gather the most fruit; for example, a pie card can double the total value of a bunch, but a grabber card gives an opponent the chance to steal a cardโ€”and all of its potential pointsโ€”from another player's hand.

Gameplay continues until one lucky fruit collector accumulates a thousand points and wins the game! Hope you've been eating your fruits, because this game requires a dash of luck, a little strategy, and a whole lot of zest.
