In the vast realm of Backyardia, the Bug Council convenes to discuss important things like picnics, how to ruin picnics and, of course, income tax reform. The different factions of bugs- ants, flies, bees, mosquitoes and cockroaches- find themselves in an ever-shifting balance of power and only those who ally themselves with the most powerful will seize the day.
Bug Council of Backyardia is a trick taking game that uses a mancala mechanism to dynamically change the strengths of the suits throughout the game. Players will play tricks, keeping an eye on which suits are most powerful, until they have one card left. If their remaining card is of one of the stronger suits, they earn themselves a nice bonus to add to the tricks they’ve won!
