New Game Release – Cucumber Catastrophe

dV Games has released Cucumber Catastrophe, a fast, highly interactive trick-taking card game, into retail.

In a world of gentle purrs and sun-soaked naps, cats live a peaceful life… or so it seems. Because an ancient green threat lurks silently: cucumbers. Shiny, cold, disturbing, ready to make even the bravest of felines jump.

Cucumber Catastrophe is a fast-paced and thrilling trick-taking card game played over four hands, each consisting of ten tricks. In each, players play a card from their hand: the second card determines the Rule of the round and establishes whether the trick will be won by the player who plays the highest or the lowest card. But be careful: the Rule can be broken at any moment, reversing the outcome of the trick!

Don’t be fooled: it’s not victory that makes you triumph, but the ability to avoid cucumbers on the cards you win. In the end, only the cat who has accumulated the fewest of these cursed vegetables, can say they have conquered their fear and saved their dignity…

Cucumber Catastrophe is for three to six players, ages eight and up, and plays in around twenty minutes. It retails for only $14.99
