Happy Salmon - Exploding Kittens Edition

High five, fish bump and happy slap your way to victory! Happy Salmon is a hilarious party game that you will learn in seconds and keep playing for hours. It’s fishy, funny and oh so irresistible to play.

HAPPY SALMON IS A FAST-PACED CARD GAME THAT GETS EVERYONE MOVING AND LAUGHING IN UNDER TWO MINUTES.

Happy Salmon is a quick party game for 3-8 players. Each player gets a stack of cards. Every card has a simple action that requires a partner. Players frantically shout their actions looking for matching players. When they find a match, they both complete the action and discard their used cards. The first player to finish all of their cards wins!

What’s in the box?

• Happy Salmon comes with 98 Action Cards featuring original artwork by the Oatmeal
• Plus one instruction manual that you will probably skim.

How to play:

Happy Salmon is a physical, fast, and LOUD game! So, clear some space, get rid of your chairs and if your heart rate goes above 120bpm you are probably doing it right!

The goal of the game is to be the first player to discard all cards.

Start by standing around a table – make sure you are close enough to high five each other. Separate cards by colour so you have eight decks of cards.

Each player then chooses a deck colour and takes all of the cards that are that colour. Shuffle the deck.

When the game starts, all players flip their personal decks over so that only one card is visible. Your goal is to discard your visible card as quickly as possible. To do that, you have to find another player with a visible card that matches yours and then both perform that action together.

To find the player with the matching card, simply shout out what the card is. When you have performed the action, discard the card on the table, on the floor anywhere that gets it out of the way and onto the next!

There are no turns, all players play at the same time. Chaos.

The actions are:

• High five – slap hands!
• Fish Bump – fist bump your partner
• Happy Salmon – slap your partners forearm twice
• Switch it up – trade places with your partner.
• Get ready for fast, hilarious fun!
