North Star Games Happy Salmon Card Game

Product Information

I don't mind that at all, in fact I particularly love that, but there's something really nice about a game that rewards the winner for essentially being the best at working together with their opponents.

I don’t want to chuckle in the same way while playing Le Harve, there is room for all types of games. The only recourse for being partnerless is to save the card for later, dropping it to the bottom of your deck. Happy Salmon is a party game for 3 to 8 players that you'll learn how to play in seconds, but you'll keep playing for hours.

He joined Dicebreaker as editor-in-chief in 2019, and has been trying to convince the rest of the team to play Diplomacy since. If, at any point, you cannot find a match for your card and you don’t want to wait any longer, you can place your top card at the bottom of your stack and move onto the next card. Each player begins the game with a deck of 12 cards, divided into four sets of three matching cards: High Five, Fish Bump, Switch It Up and the Happy Salmon itself. Besides, one of my friends (who's won the most games of Happy Salmon) mostly won because he was good at figuring out when to move on from the card he was holding - he won not because his deck is shuffled the best, but because he's good at figuring out when the thing he's holding doesn't work with what the others have. If you can’t find anyone to High 5 with you can put that card to bottom and work from the new card instead.Tarda més a arribar del que diuen quan fas la comanda però pots anar fent seguiment del paquet xq l’enviament a Espanya és amb correos. It’s a short burst of energy and madness and the worst bit by far is picking up the cards at the end. Happy Salmon gets around both of those by being very, very brief and by inherently being about cooperation.

One, I'm not usually good at keeping track of multiple simultaneously changing points of data (which is why I'm so bad at Ligretto, for example) or they're much too loud (which is why I don't like Pit or On A Scale of One to Dinosaur). Originally designed by Ken Gruhl and Quentin Weir, Happy Salmon has been reimagined by Exploding Kittens with new artwork and updated rules.

And even though the game is still loud, the loudness is hyper-condensed to a brief two-minute burst where people just mostly shout the name of an action before quickly moving on. There are legions of folks who share your passion for gaming, behind-the-scenes content, and the occasional gift of free stuff–and they’re all hanging out on our Discord server! If we’re heading out the door to go to grandma’s for dinner, it’s so easy to grab the cute fish by the tail and toss the game in the car. Take all the excitement of Happy Salmon, add funky dance moves, pack it in a disco chicken sporting a cool pair of shades and you’ve got.

A player can almost always find a partner in Pit, and even when they can’t there are plays to be made (splitting a set, changing the collected suit).There's four actions; a high five, a fist bump, switching places with another player, and the titular "happy salmon" where players slap each-other's forearms in a way that's meant to simulate a fish flapping around in dry land. Happy Salmon is one of those quirky games where it’s going to take you longer to read this review than it would to just play a game of it – though, I’m going to try to get through the game as quickly as possible. The cards have cheerful depictions of fish indicating what you have to do on each card, but I reckon most people would understand without them! The game also come in a wonderfully quirky salmon carry bag which make it perfect for travelling with! The aim is to match the card at the top of your deck with another player, performing the shown action to discard the card - high-fiving, fist-bumping, swapping places and slapping each other’s forearm like a flapping fish.

Looking at the neoprene-like fish-shaped packaging, with the stupidly smug fish on it, I would forgive you for walking past this one. A game of Happy Salmon sees a group of people standing around a table shouting the same word over and over again, until they move onto the next action when that word will be repeated on a loop instead.
