You've Got Crabs
Form teams of two players each (max of 5 teams). Each team meets privately to come up with a non vocal signal to indicate when either teammate collects 4 of the same Crab Card.
Each player will get a hand of 4 cards.
One side plays at a time. On a side’s turn; all players on that side can simultaneously swap any card from their hand with a card from the middle of the table (The Ocean).
When you have 4 of the same Crab Card; you can't say anything out loud. Instead; when you’re ready; give your secret signal to your teammate. When they notice; they will point at you and shout; 'YOU’VE GOT CRABS!'
If they’re right; your team gets a point. If they’re wrong; your team loses a point.
However if a player on another team suspects you’re passing a signal; they can point and shout; 'YOU’VE GOT CRABS!'
If they are correct; they steal one of your points. If they are incorrect; steal a Crab Token from the accusing player.
The game is over when the last Crab Token has been taken from the Crab Pot. At that point; all teams should count up their combined Crab Tokens. The team with the most Crab Tokens wins.
The game is a reimplementation of the classic card game Kemps; but with a different card distribution and breaking up the card swap phase by team.
