Rumpus is quick, pocket-sized, easy to learn, and has something to offer everyone.

It is a game for rowdy people who like pretend-fighting each other with cards. It is a game for devious people who like to bluff and spur on conflict between other players. It is a game for brainy people who like to be rewarded for thinking ahead. And, it is a game for quirky people who like little pictures of top hats, mustaches, and old-timey bicycles.

Rumpus is suitable for ages 10 and up and can be played in about 20 minutes. It is meant for 3 to 5 players, but multiple decks can be combined to make room for more!

The premise is simple. A player chooses another player to fight. The other players place bets on the fighters. The fighter who plays the best set of cards wins the round.

Rumpus will come packaged in a poker-size playing card tuck box. It includes 36 Fight Cards, 14 Victory Cards, 1 Your Turn / Reference Card, and 2 Rules Cards.

The cards will be printed on 300gsm black core card stock, a tried and true stock for playing cards. However, if we exceed our funding goals, the extra money will be put toward even better paper and packaging!

Rumpus is completely language-independent and colorblind-friendly!
