Overview
What ABG knows about this game
Gobbit is a fast-playing reaction game in which the last player to have cards in front of him wins. The cards depict three animals in three colors, and the animals eat one another based on their color and a precise food chain: the chameleon eats mosquito, the snake eats the chameleon. As a special card, the gorilla kills all three other types of animals, sending them to the graveyard. If mosquitoes of all three colors are in play, then everyone must race to the graveyard or risk losing all of their cards. Chameleons come into play with the variant rules, with each chameleon having a special power that comes into play when on top of the graveyard.
