Bears vs Babies: A Card Game From the Creators of Exploding Kittens - ENGLISH VERSION

Great game...not really anything to do with Bears though other than the fluffy brown box. Needs a LOT of table space even for 2 players so we improvised it on our small table. It's fun, plenty replayable and you can improvise the rules a bit to make it easier / harder as you want

Very easy to play, you basically have three moves each. You can either place a card or pick one up.. for instance pick up two cards then place one down on the table, or if you have good cards already just place three cards down. Or if you need more cards just pick up three. The object of the game is to create monsters within different colour groups. If you pick up a baby card it must be placed in the designated spot. Once this pile builds up and you feel you have strong enough monsters in that colour code.. PROVOKE THE BABIES! If your score is higher then the babies score you win the baby cards. If it isn’t then the babies win and they stay put but you loose all your cards you played and they go into the discard pile. Person with the most baby cards win! Very easy to grasp and a fun game to play with kids. We watched a tutorial on YouTube so we could all sit down and watch the rules before we played. I personally feel the game is over to quickly and would be better with double the amount of cards but apart from that we enjoyed this game and have played it around 10times this weekend. The case is very cute and fluffy and cards are all good quality. The mat is made of fabric. My 10year old son loves all the funny animal heads.

Exploding kittens has over time become the ultimate late night card game of choice for me and my friends. We often play it after a few drinks and the multiple opportunities for deceit makes the whole experience very entertaining (especially when you have a new player at the table who falls for the ol' "draw from the bottom" trick). When I saw Bears vs. Babies I obviously had to try it out to see if that could be our next favorite game! Unfortunately, it probably wont be. There are a few things that makes BvB a bit less enjoyable, 1) it takes more time to understand and appreciate the rules of the game, 2) once you're a bit tipsy its more things that you need to remember making it more difficult to win, 3) you need a lot more space on your table.. With that said, its still a good game and if you are someone who doesn't enjoy a cocktail next to your card game and have a big bleep table to play on, you'll surely enjoy it :) Also, kudos for the fur box, when you're down from just loosing a round, it helps to calm nerves.

The creators of this, and of Exploding Kittens: A Card Game About Kittens and Explosions and Sometimes Goats , are clearly as mad as a box or two of frogs. Last year, I bought Exploding Kittens as a Christmas present for everyone and it went down extremely well. Bears vs Babies, by the same bunch of loonies, had a few quid off before Christmas this year so I bought it. The box is furry. A nice kind of fur, quite stokeable so watch out for people having a crafty feel and be sure to make fun of them. There is no real reason for this. It's a gimmick. A nice one. The game title is one to be ashamed of. I consider it terrible to think that some people might see this as condoning violence against poor, defenceless bears. Thus, I'm much relieved to find that the game would more appropriately be called 'Monsters vs Babies' as the bears play only a small part. The monsters (might be bears) you design do their best against armies of various kinds of babies and your job is to build up your monster army to defeat them. Sounds silly? Oh no - not silly at all. This game is one of deep strategy. Do you invoke the babies when you know you can defeat them with a small army and win lots of small amounts, or do you build a large army and aim to defeat (and hence win) more babies? The creators of the game have obviously spent a lot of time, in whatever asylum houses them, test playing this game. The rules are basically simple (children can play this - there's nothing actually horrific in it, unless you've been at the grown-up's juice) but there are subtle nuances that seem strange at first, but make sense once you have played a few times and got a hang of the strategy. You can't play this game on your lap - you'll need a coffee table or bigger to lay your monsters out on so don't buy it to play on a transatlantic flight - Exploding Kittens is your choice for that. So, my advice is to buy this game if you're wondering whether to shell out for it or not. If you're intending playing it with small people, it'll be fine and you'll probably have to accept defeat to your eight year old, but if you're intending it to be played amongst adults and you've imagining late nights with a chink of glasses and a game to make people look at you squinty-eyed as you force them to waste their army then you've got the right picture in your mind.

Great game and fun for all the family. Excellent price, looks great and easy to travel with.

It sounds a little complicated to start with, even when watching the animat d instructional video online. However just throw yourself into a practice game and use the faqs as you go and it’s great! Really easy!! My 6 year old daughter was enthralled for a good few hours. I really enjoyed the quality time and was happy to see my daughter using strategy to improve her chance of winning. Fab packaging that really sparked interest from my child. Great graphics and age appropriate too. I think kids below 10 are likely to enjoy this game too. However I wouldn’t go much younger than uk year one as they arent likely to follow the game too well.

Absolutely brilliant game! We love all the games from the Exploding kittens crew. It's really easy to learn from the YouTube video they have. Completely fun - takes a little bit of practice to get the hang of it but once you're in the flow of it, it's really easy and fun to play. We've played it almost every day since opening on Christmas day. Beautiful artwork & really fun concept. Takes about 20 mins to play (as it says on the box). The packaging is totally fun and beautiful too! We love everything about this game!

Purchased for a gift, this game is great and really fun to play. I had my own copy and decided to buy some Christmas gifts.

Great fun game!! Awesome that can also be played in a couple.

The video instructions are excellent and highly recommended to learn the game quickly. While easy enough to learn there is enough complexity to play this game over and over again without being bored. Great strategy game.

Lo compré sin pensar al saber que era de los creadores de Exploding Kittens, y no me ha decepcionado. Lo primero es que es muy original y no existe juego igual en el mercado. Divierte mucho y ha sorprendido a los amigos con los que he jugado. Es más estratégico que Exploding Kittens, eso gustará a unos más que a otros. Las partidas no son tan rápidas como Exploding Kittens porque algunos turnos la gente tiene que pensar bien lo que hacer. Pero nada que se haga eterno y sigue siendo un juego rápido y fácil de jugar. Que esté en inglés es todavía más irrelevante que en Exploding Kittens, que si ya era facilísimo de entender, aquí casi no hace falta leer nada. Una vez te explican cómo jugar, solo muy pocas cartas llevan texto y se explican bien en el FAQ que incluye el juego. En resumen, una compra muy recomendada. Gran juego y buen precio teniendo en cuenta lo cuidada que está la edición y que son muchísimas cartas las que incluye.

They never disappointm, always happy to buy from them!
