Land on a gorilla and you race to grab the correctly sized gorilla card - which is harder than it sounds, because the sizes are close enough that your eyes will argue with you. Land on a banana or a coconut and you resolve the action or phrase on the card first, then dive for the wooden coconuts and foam bananas in the middle of the table. There are never enough to go around.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe player holding the most banana points when the gorillas or the cards run out takes the game. Rules are explained in about a minute, which is the point: this is a filler and a party game, designed to be taught to someone who has never played and finished before anyone loses interest.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhy it works as a family game\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAges 8+ but genuinely playable across a whole family - reaction speed matters more than strategy\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA 10-15 minute round makes it a natural opener or closer for a longer games night\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePhysical grabbing components give it energy that a pure card game does not have\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEstablished brand recognition through the Taco Cat Goat Cheese Pizza line\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat's in the box\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e100 gorilla cards\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e60 action and banana point cards\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e5 wooden coconuts\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e2 foam bananas\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1 spinner with cardboard placemat\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePlayers: 2-6\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePlay time: 10-15 minutes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRecommended age: 8+\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePublisher: Dolphin Hat Games\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBox dimensions: 20.3 x 13.3 x 7.0 cm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWeight: 0.6 kg\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBarcode (GTIN): 855836006265\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWarning:\u003c\/strong\u003e contains small parts.
