About this game
Whales Destroying The World is a quick and fun game for three to six whales. Say no more to the plastic bags, it’s time to avenge Moby Dick! In this bluffing game, you are about to wage war with humanity. To do that, you need to build your army first. Players represent whale generals putting together the best team possible. In the end, only one can lead the attack (and win the game). Humans may have no chance against those huge flying and terrifying whales, but they will send their best to protect them — superheroes. In the end, there is always one traitor working hard to stop the attack. Players are taking cards from a common deck and offering them to other players. They can choose to keep them for their own army (collection) or send them back to the player. They do that with a minimum knowledge about the cards, just predicting whether others are bluffing or not. The "whale" player wins by completing a collection of cards with the highest value in front of him. The "superhero" player wins by infiltrating at least one player's army with enough superheroes. -description from designer
Does it fit your group?
- Group size. Works with 3 to 6.
- Rules load. At 1.0/5 this is a light game — explain it in a few minutes, good for a table that has not played much.
- Age. The publisher suggests 7 and up. That rates the rules rather than the artwork, so judge the box yourself for younger players.
