Read the full game description
Roaring 20s is a brisk auction and set-collection card game in which dinosaurs arrive for the decade’s most stylish party. Each dinosaur prefers particular drinks or lava cakes, and players bid matching snack cards or flexible gems to lure it to their tableau. Passing reserves a bid card for later, creating a useful tension between today’s guest and tomorrow’s buying power. At the end, pairs, triplets, and sequences score, while duplicate dinosaurs can be discarded to turn Mine cards into jokers. The result is a quick auction game with visible goals and sharp timing decisions.
