Read the full game description

Collect! is a quick, interactive card game about assembling the animal alliance that will rule a leaderless jungle. On your turn, you draw and add an animal to your row, trying to group four of the same kind together. The simple collection goal is constantly disrupted by the eight animals’ powers: cards move, swap, disappear, or impersonate another animal, so a promising row can transform in a single play. Completing an alliance awards a half crown, while the more demanding full-crown route can win immediately. Because everyone’s row remains visible, each draw presents a readable choice between improving your own position and using an ability that breaks a rival’s formation. The rules are light enough for families, but timing a Chameleon, Monkey, Crab, or Crocodile gives the fifteen-minute race a lively tactical edge.
