Llama Llama is a compact card-drafting game about building the right hand while hiding what “right” means. At the start of each round, players secretly choose scoring conditions, then pass and select cards to create combinations that satisfy those goals. Because everyone can watch which cards disappear and which continue around the table, success depends on reading opponents as much as improving your own hand. Quick rounds and changing objectives make the same small deck feel remarkably slippery.
