frequently asked questions

Q - If the receiver of the FU card uses a YEAH - NAH card to cancel it, does it also cancel the Treasure as well?

A - No, the YEAH - NAH card only cancels the FU card, so put it in the discard pile and keep the Treasure cards

Q - The card says I can ‘use anytime’, can I use it on someone who has already started playing the HAVE A CRACK mini game?

A - No, you must give the card to the person BEFORE they start to HAVE A CRACK.

Q - When using HAVE A CRACK, do other cards like Attack +1 or Dropbear -1 have an effect when playing?

A - No

Q - If a card mentions ‘any player’, does this include myself?

A - Yes

Q - What happens if I swap treasures with someone who has none?

A - You get none

Q - Can I choose which treasures to discard?

A - Yes

Q - If there is a rule in play that increases attack power, do I still need to play an Attack card if the rule is for an equal to or greater than the value of the Dropbear?

A - Yes, at least one Attack card must be played per Dropbear battle.

Q - The rules were reset with a card, do the basic rules apply now.

A - Yes

Q - The dice has a Spider on it, does it represent 6?

A - Yes

Q - What happens when FU cards do not apply to you? Such as “Road Works”. Does this card go back into the Draw pile or the discard pile?

A - Discard pile.

Q - Do you have to yell ‘SPIDERS’ if you’re picking up Treasure cards and it takes you over the amount you need to end the game?

A - Nah. If you have ended your turn and you have 1 Treasure less than the goal to end the game, then the rule applies.

Q - If a card allows you to ‘get’ a Treasure does the holder of the Treasure get to pick which Treasure to give you?

A - Yeah. If it mentions ‘get’ then the holder of the Treasure chooses which card to give you. If it mentions ‘steal’, then you get to choose randomly (no peeking!).
