About Flippers
Teams of Antarctic Explorers compete for food in an ever-changing environment. Each player will have 9 Explorer Cards to pick from to assemble their team ready to stash away as much food as they can to win. Each Explorer Card has a power that activates when played next to another card. Then, all of the faceup card powers from the same team activate, causing penguins and seals to flip, bump, and spin across the Antarctic! Each game will start with crates of food which will award extra points to explorers at the end of the game. Play head-to-head or buddy up together in this competitive card game. The goal of Flippers is to have the highest food value at the end of the game, represented by the wooden fish tokens. Players gain food tokens throughout the game, and the Food Cards award extra points to explorers once the game has finished. —description from the designer
