Product Information

The basic premise is players try to acquire a stack of cards consisting of matching goats, each of which is worth from five to fifty points. I’ve bought four copies of Goat Lords and the expansion after giving away our other copies to two teen girls in college, a couple in their late 20s, and my in-laws who are in their late 70s and play card games with other elderly couples in their building. For example, if someone uses an action (not the dread raining fire-goats card), but say the Russian Goatlette, if someone plays Escape Goat, does that just apply to him/her, or does it stop the action? If players cannot complete any of the above-mentioned actions, then they may discard a card and draw a new card.

This game is much more fun to us than Cover Your Assets and the action cards and art work play a big part in that assessment. BECOME THE GOAT LORD: The GOAL of this hilariously strategic card game is to become Lord of the Goats! If you’re looking for hilarious card games that will make everyone laugh then you’ve landed on the jack-pot! The player must have a goat card in their hand that matches the goats in the opponent's top pile, or a wild.The only way an opponent can defend their goats is if they play the same goat card again or a wild card. So if you steal a big pile and succeed in holding on to it for an entire round, you can play a new stack on top and protect it.

If the discard pile contains 5 or more goat cards at the time the Draw Pile becomes empty, then shuffle the remaining discard pile and continue drawing from it as the Draw Pile.If the Discard Pile has more than five goat cards, then it may be shuffled and used as the new Draw Pile. The creators have certainly shown lots of creativity creating a game that's so entertaining and amusing! Knowing how to play your cards, when to hold ‘em, and who to attack greatly affect how many points you end up when the last goat is played. Know when to hold ‘em and know when to attack, as you are also a potential target for other players!

OBJECT OF GOAT LORDS: The objective of Goat Lords is to be the player with the largest herd of goats by the end of the game. It’s perfect for any family game night, party game, thanks giving games, christmas party games, teen games and more.When the draw pile has been emptied, gameplay will continue around the group until their hands are empty. We often find that games tend to bias the adults, as they understand tactics and gameplay better which makes it fairly tedious for younger players who rarely win (unless the adults let them! If the defender wins, he or she collects the cards used in the duel and add them to the top (defended) pile. It’s perfect for any family game night, party game, thanksgiving games, christmas party games, teen games and more!
