How it plays

How does it play?

In BiberClan, each player has their own beaver lodge. During the game, you try to collect cards with the highest possible values in your lodge — but the lower-value cards are nothing to sneeze at either because having the same card multiple times gives you bonus points.

Read the full game description

In BiberClan, each player has their own beaver lodge. During the game, you try to collect cards with the highest possible values in your lodge — but the lower-value cards are nothing to sneeze at either because having the same card multiple times gives you bonus points. Of course, it's not easy to keep the best cards. Cards can be swapped in the blink of an eye, so no card ever stays where it is for long! Once the first player has added five cards to their lodge, all the other players get to take one final turn. After the crazy card swap, the players add up the points in their beaver lodges. The player with the most points after a set number of rounds is the "beaver boss".
