Read the full game description

Gnomi is a quick strategy card game about mushroom-farming gnomes for 2-6 players. Steal mushroom cards from other players, and use your gnomes to enact special abilities. Once cards have been used, you flip them up-side-down in your hand. The last player with right-side-up cards in their hand wins. Gnomi is designed so that you can play anywhere, since your hand is also your discard pile. After dealing, you can keep the decks in your pocket. Deduction and resource management are needed to win. Play a quick game while waiting in line, or as a filler at game night. Games take 10 minutes. 2-6 players.
