Cockroach Poker Royal

Discover the classic favorite, Cockroach Poker, now in an exquisite ROYAL edition! Bluff your way to victory using creepy, crawly creatures.

This animal-themed game features gross-tastic illustrations, nasty additional rules, and a variety of royal creepy-crawlies, offering even more fun and excitement!

Cockroach Poker Royal, like its predecessor Cockroach Poker, has nothing to do with poker – except that the game is all about bluffing, but with cards showing cockroaches, rats and stink bugs instead of queens, 10s and aces. 

To play, shuffle the deck and deal the cards to each player. On their turn, a player selects a card from their hand, places it face down, and claims a type of critter, like “Stink bug.” The next player can either accept the card and declare it right or wrong, revealing it afterward, or pass it to another player while possibly making a new claim about the critter type. 

The game ends when a player has 4 animals of one type (e.g. 4 cockroaches with or without a crown) placed in front of them or when it is their turn and they have no more cards in their hand. In both cases this player has lost and all the others have won!
