Gimme Gimme Guinea Pigs

Gimme Gimme Guinea Pigs is a fast and fun game played in real time! Players start with seven cards in hand while the rest of the cards are spread out, face down, on the table in front of them. Each card has one of six different animals or is a PAWS card. The goal of the game: Be the first to collect all seven cards of one animal and shout "Got 'em!"

To start the game one player says "Ready, set, go!" and the game begins! Everyone plays at the same time. Player choose one card from their hand to play face up on the table and then may grab any other card, face up or down, to add to their hand. If a player plays the PAWS card, play stops and everyone passes three of their cards to the player on their right. The PAWS card is removed from the game and the player who used it shouts "GO!" to continue the game. First player to get all seven of one animal and shout "Got 'em!" wins the game.

Race to the Treasure!

The race is on! Can you beat the Ogre to the treasure? It's your job to make a path from START to the treasure and collect the three keys that will open the treasure's locks before the Ogre gets there. Strategize, cooperate, and build the path together.

Children as young as two can play this co-operative tile laying game. On their turn, the player draws one tile from the bag, and it will either show a piece of path or picture of the Ogre.

Working together the players need to first make a path to the three keys that open the treasure and then lay a path to the treasure itself. All the while, each Ogre tile gets him closer to the treasure, and the players losing.

Everyone works together on the tile placement and either they win together or lose together.

The game has simple rules and does not require reading, meaning that even kids as young as 2 can be involved.
