Animal Ailments: The Miming Party Game
3–20 players · 30 min · 8+
In this family friendly party game, players take turns to mime (using hand gestures and body movements only), various combinations of Animals and Ailments. The game is split across green animal cards and red ailment cards.
Players take turns to win cards by miming and guessing. Scoring in the game revolves around players successfully miming and guessing the animal/ailment COMBO:
Shout out the COMBO to win the red card: “a tiger that’s scared of mice!” "a sleepwalking kangaroo" “a kleptomaniac clownfish!” “a hungover hyena etc!”
There are bonus and steal mimes available, letting you win an extra red card from the box, or steal a card from another player respectively (if you still have time left on the timer to mime these additional mimes). There is also a "Barnslig Bonus" wildcard that infers four special actions to its owner. The Barnslig Bonus can be played at any time.
