Too Many Turtles: The Card Game? Too Many Turtles is a tactical board card game in which two players compete over the course of up to 3 rounds to build the most valuable army of turtles that they are able to gather. The player with the most points at the end of the round wins and the game goes to the first player to win 2 out of 3 rounds. On the other side, you have an army of daredevil turtles being controlled by humans trying to stop turtron from saving the world. Wielding terrible effect cards like Debilitating Pollution and Plastic, they will stop at nothing to keep the valiant hero Turtron from cleaning the environment and helping the turtle population to reassert itself. Thanks to our amazing partners at SEE Turtles, you’ll be able to save turtles no matter which deck you play! In fact, we will pledge to save at least 50 turtles for every person who backs our game. In other words, your figurative turtle saving antics can literally save endangered sea turtles in real life.

It is their goal to generate needed information and pass it to the people who need it most.
Effect cards affect turtles, some even infect, like The T-Virus. Turtles in our game don’t attack other turtles. We don’t advocate for turtle on turtle violence. We do, however, allow for a series of wacky, and sometimes serious effect cards to increase competitive gameplay. As it stands, we have 4 different types of Effect Cards in the game: Add/Subtract HP from turtles – These cards can help you edge out your opponent when the round ends and it’s time to calculate scores. Remove Turtles from play – These cards (Such as House Fire pictured far left) can remove turtles from the field of play, keeping your opponent stuck in place.See more info at Trei Amici Games.
From the guys who played Cards Against Humanity and Exploding Kittens comes a new game, starring some of the slowest animals on the planet; but things get moving pretty quickly! Players will take turns playing turtles and moving them across the field as quickly as possible, dodging all of the wild effects that their opponent can throw at them. Sometimes the effects are very real, like discarded Plastic or Debilitating Pollution, sometimes they’re as sudden as Shell Death!
