GamewrightTrash Pandas - The Raucous Raccoon Card Game - 252

This game was a delightful surprise! I picked one up for myself after forgetting our board games at home on a camping trip. I liked it so much a few weeks later I gave a copy away as a gift. I've been impressed by how simple and quick it is to play. It reminds me of the fun, fast-paced gameplay of Sushi Go!, but with a slightly easier learning curve.There's definitely a luck factor involved, but there's still room for strategic thinking. More skilled players will tend to win more often, although there's always an element of chance that can keep things interesting.The beauty of this game is its portability and setup. You can teach it in just 5 minutes, all it takes is a shuffle to get started. Even a 10-year-old (who play games regularly) picked it up in no time, and manages to win about 20% of the games we play! I also think the price is just right.

It was great. Taught it to my friends who LOVED IT. I love it this game is worth buying for ANYONE. I am th GOAT at this game. So strategygicle. Uses slang I've got to admit I'm team trash pandas. They should play this competitively take that UNO we beat you.

Got this for a do nothing family vacation and we played almost every day. High quality pieces, easy to understand once you play a round or two. Not a lot of strategy, but also not all chance. Portable and nice design.

Play this often. Fun and easy. Am amazed there are so many negative reviews stating its too hard to understand. About as hard as emptying a water filled boot with the instructions on the heel! 😁

I bought this game for my nephews, nine and five, and of course the five-year-old needed help, but the nine-year-old caught on very quickly. It was a little hard to figure out the rules at first, but once we started playing, it was so much fun I decided to buy it for myself. My friend says it’s somewhat similar to the game sushi go, if you know what that is. Fun strategy and competition. Good to have in your game collection.

I’m an adult but I love playing this game! It’s got enough variables to keep your chances of winning changing. I recently gave this game to my 8 year old nephew and was delighted how quickly he understood the strategy, and of course I lost!

This is a great game of risk management, balancing benefits with costs of various options, and planning ahead. All packaged into a very funny game about raccoons stealing from trash and stashing the spoils.I'm an avid board game player and I usually lean toward more complex games, but it's hard to get family and many friends to play something that takes a while to explain and learn. So I'm delighted when I find a game that's fun to play with family instead of boring for me. Trash Pandas is genuinely fun, giving a great set of mechanics that's pretty easy to quickly explain and start playing. There is some randomness involved in winning (cards you draw and how well pushing your luck serves you), but I like how much my strategy matters. When the game ends, your cards in hand do nothing for you; it's all about the cards you stashed, what you chose to play instead of stash away, and how well you gauged what other players were stashing.It's a great game for friends or family, and I recommend it.

My husband and I enjoy Unstable Unicorns, we were looking for another game to use up the remainder of my giftcard and he found this. We are about to play our 1st game. It reminds me of unstable Unicorns a little with the different actions on the cards and the stash would be like the stable. I like the added dice and token elements because it makes it feel closer to a regular board game and I'm starting to get interested in the hobby. Plus the price is awesome!!!! Kind of can't believe we got it for $9. The box is decently small so it would be something I would definitely be happy to throw in my purse or suitcase to take with me on a trip. The box can also double as a dice tray.
