Stomp The Plank

Stomp The Plank is a push-your-luck card game for 2–4 players with a brilliantly simple premise: steal as much treasure as you can from Captain Giraffe's chest without getting caught. The more you take, the more crates your opponents stack on their planks — but draw the same card twice and your own elephant stomps forward. One stomp too many and you're off the plank.

On your turn, draw as many cards as you like from the chest. Each card you take loads crates onto your opponents' planks — but if you draw a duplicate, your elephant advances on yours. Stop when you're ahead, or push your luck for one more card. The tension is immediate, the decisions are real, and the elephant stomping forward never gets old.
