Poo! The card game review

Today I'm talking about Poo! No it isn't as disgusting as you think it is. This is a card game where the premise is that you are monkeys in a cage who are flinging your poo at each other. Once a player reaches 15 poo they are out of the game. The game is quick, easy to learn and fun. And no there is no actual poo imagery just different monkeys or zoo images on the cards.

Poo is given  by playing various Poo or special poo cards. Some deliver a single poo (pellet poo) some deliver up to 7 (the big one), some deliver poo to multiple opponents. Removing poo involves the use of "clean cards." Poo can be also be blocked by a number of defensive cards.

The simple mechanic of Poo! is to draw a card as soon as you play a card. You will find as players gain more experience this will lead to rapid card plays.

The immature nature of the game can initially be off putting to some people, however I found this game is actually accessible to people of all levels. The immature theme also helps get people into a fun mood.

This is also a great game to play while a host sets up the big game of the evening, or if people just want some easy game play for a night. You will need some sort of counter (pennies or poker chips) to keep track of poo. I wouldn't advise pen/paper because poo levels change quickly.

If you have a group who is up for wacky fun and childish giggles, this is a great game to pick up.
