Cardline: Animals

Cardline: Animals is a card game played with approximately 100 cards. Both sides of each card depict an animal, its name, and its class (amphibian, mammal, etc.), while its average length, weight, and lifespan are printed on only one side of the card. For each game, players decide before playing whether they're comparing animal lengths, weights, or lifespans.

“The sheep is clearly bigger and heavier than the hedgehog, but does it live longer? I suppose so. But what bout Herman’s tortoise? It is small and light too, yet it seems to me that it can live a very long time. But what does ‘very long’ mean compared to an elephant or a whale? Pfff…. It’s not so easy to estimate the life expectancy of an animal, I’ll probably do better with the size or the weight of the animal.”

In Cardline Animals, these are the kinds of questions you’ll face every time you want to place one of your cards. There is only one goal: to be the first to play all your cards correctly.
