Killer Bunnies Card Game

Keep your bunnies alive as you embark on a quest for the Magic Carrot! The game is played with cards and 12 sided dice. While bunnies conjour up kid-friendly images, the game serves up a large dose of dark humor as bunnies get whacked. Given the dark adult humor, this is one of those dice card games best suited for anyone older than 12.

Wildlife Rescue by Dice Maestro

Wildlife Rescue Custom Dice

Wildlife Rescue succeeds at creating a compelling game that also draws attention to the plight of 8 endangered animals from around the world. The dice themselves show images of these animals instead of numbers. The cards contain stunning photographs of the animals along with facts about their habitat, characteristics and endangered status. The game is equal parts entertaining and educational.

Each player acts as a conservation officer intent on collecting endangered species. Rolling 3 of a kind allows a player to collect a wildlife card for that species. Each species card contains a different point value. To win, a player needs to collect the highest scoring hand of wildlife cards. "Zoo Collection" cards and "zoo transfer" cards add strategy to the game, with players able to earn bonus points or take a species card from another opponent.

Dice Maestro's web site offers great info on game tactics and strategy along with PDF files for advanced rules and FAQs.

The game itself includes 6 endangered species dice and 30 playing cards. Dice Maestro proudly donates to the Arkive organization, dedicated to collecting information and images on the world's endangered species.

I've bought this game myself and look forward to playing it with my children when they get older.

In the interest of promoting awareness of endangered species, I'll list the 8 species used in the game along with links for more information:

Harlequin Mantella Frog
Rodrigues Flying Fox (Fruit Bat)
Javan Rhinoceros
Amur Leopard
Mountain Gorilla
California Condor
Dama Gazelle
Ceylon Rose Butterfly

One More Thing...

Would you be interested in a deck of dice cards? Yes, there's a deck of 36 cards - one card for each possible combination resulting from the roll of a pair of dice. These dice cards can add a whole new twist on card and dice games.

I've heard of people using this deck with the Settlers of Catan game instead of dice. You could devise a new game with them or use them to better understand probability and odds.
