Wriggle Roulette is a tactile push-your-luck game played entirely by feel. A bag holds dozens of curved wooden eels and a few dangerous snakes. Players reach in, choose how many pieces to pull, and add the harmless catch to their haul; drawing too much snake triggers an outbreak that punishes the player holding the largest pile of eels. Because everyone can see who is ahead but nobody knows what a hand contains until it opens, each grab mixes probability, nerve, and comic table-reading in a tiny box that supports up to eight players.
