🐟 Somethin' Fishy

How to play

1. Two to five players sit down, then anyone seated presses Start. Everyone else can watch and chat.
2. On your turn, reveal a card from the pile. A fed fish goes at the right-hand end of your lagoon if it is the same kind or the same size as the fish there (anything goes in an empty lagoon).
3. If it doesn't fit, it is offered to the player on your left, and so on around the table. A player who can place it may take it or pass it on. If nobody can, it is thrown back.
4. After a fed fish, you can reveal another card, bank your catch and end your turn, or end your turn without banking.
5. A hungry fish swims into your lagoon and eats fish from the right until it meets a fish of its own kind (or eats them all). They become a thick fish in the middle and your turn ends.
6. Have three or more fed fish of one kind in your lagoon? You can take that kind's pile of thick fish, before you reveal or after a fed fish.
7. Banked fish are safe. Fish still in a lagoon are worth nothing at the end.
8. When the fish cards run out, the water cards come out. The first hungry fish revealed ends the game on the spot.
9. Most banked cards wins. A tie goes to whoever has more hungry fish.
