Read the full game description

Spiky Dastards has 5 little figures that are so cute, you'll want to capture them all. But be careful, they're well protected! Split the deck of 60 cards into 2 piles and reveal the top card from each. The pictures on the cards will indicate 1 or 2 of the figures that players must race to carefully grab. If you're able to grab one, you get a card. If you grab the wrong one, you lose a card. You'll have to be daring if you want to collect the most cards and win! —description from the publisher
