Play Overview
The Muddles (2020) is a card sequencing and collecting game where you combine animals to create mixed-up creatures. With the target creations in the middle, you use your hand to combine the words and pictures and make the muddle. It stands out for its simplicity and fun while also teaching some reading and strategy.
Play involves placing a series of the target Muddle cards in the centre and each player using or swapping cards on their go as they work to make the most muddles. The rarer the Muddle, the more points you win. The player with the most points when the deck runs out wins.
The result is an approachable game for all ages that requires a bit of skill. You need to keep an eye on the muddles your opponents are making, and try and get there before they do. Or you can try and get three identical animal cards to pick any muddle you want.
