Goat Lords - Most Addicting Card Games for Families, Teens, Kids (Boy and Girl) Ages 7 and Up - Family Board Games, Fun Game, Card Game for Adults or Family Game Night! A Great Gift Idea!

Similar game play as cover your assets, but with a lot of different action cards. Some allow you to bring a stack to the top of someone’s pile, you can swap a stack, say no to a duel , etc. Probably best to play with 3+ players. Rules were pretty clear, videos helpful.A fun time! Clever cards, fun illustrations. Would recommend for a family/party game. Super kid friendly.Great size, good packaging, really good quality box.

I run a board game club at my high school. Often I have then students test out new games to learn how they work and to have a good time. I had 4 boys sit down to try this one and here's some highlights:1. The game was quick to learn and the gameplay loop was fun.2. I think they need more variety of goats (I told then about the expansions and they thought that was good)3. Thus would be a fun game to play with my family and little brothers.4. We really like the artwork too.So overall the game was a hit with the high schoolers and they thought my own children (5-6 years old) could learn the game and have fun too. A great game for you to consider for your own family.

My husband, son, and I love this card game. Not only is the art work cute but the Action Cards help give the game a little extra strategy. It’s great when you know someone has a Chuck Norris or Leonardo de Caprio stack with several 25 and/or 50 wild cards and you have three action cards to help you steal it from them: play the action card where you ask the player to your left for their highest wild card until you get to someone who has a wild card to give you (players should be honest about it or why bother playing?), plus one more action; that action is to play the card where you pick a player to put a stack of your choice to the top of their stack plus one action; the plus action would be to play another action card, especially the one where it tells you to steal the top stack of any player and now you can steal the big points stack you just had someone bring up to the top of their big stack AND you get one more action; the last action would be to put another two matching goat cards on top of your own goat stack to “protect” your new, just stolen goat stack!I’m not sure why some of the 1-3 Star reviews had issues with the rules as they are pretty straight forward and the action cards are self explanatory. There were also some 1-2 star reviews from people saying Goat Lords is a blatant rip off of Uncle Becks Cover Your Assets but I don’t agree. This game has the action cards which help add some strategy to your play as I outlined above. Plus the art work makes this game so much more pleasant to look at. This game is much more fun to us than Cover Your Assets and the action cards and art work play a big part in that assessment.I think it’s completely wrong for people to accuse Gatwick Games of stealing Uncle Becks Cover Your Assets game and simply switching it up by giving it a goat theme. Cover Your Assets is an updated knock-off of a couple of games going back 50 years! And there’s absolutely nothing wrong with that just as there’s nothing wrong with Goat Lords being similar to Cover Your Assets. It’s all a matter of whether you want to play a game with action cards and cute and funny art work or a more streamlined similar mechanic game like Cover Your Assets.This game has been such a hit with everyone we’ve played it with that we end up giving away our copy of the base game as well as the expansion as soon as we finish playing to the people we just played it with because they loved it so much! We end up buying another copy of both and end up giving them away each time! I’ve bought four copies of Goat Lords and the expansion after giving away our other copies to two teen girls in college, a couple in their late 20s, and my in-laws who are in their late 70s and play card games with other elderly couples in their building.Anyhow, everyone is entitled to their own opinion and their own review but I don’t think accusations of stealing are the way to deal with that opinion. But the game and decide for yourself. And if you’ve never played Cover Your Assets, get that one too and decide for yourself.I’m in no way shape or form related to nor do I know the creator of this game or anyone at Gatwick Games. I just think this is a very fun card game if you just want a casual game night.

This is a really fun game that takes a little bit of getting used to. But once you get over that learning curve, it's great. For this reason I think it works great as a family game but not a good one for inviting people over for a game they've never played. Has a perfect blend of fun and strategy mixed into one. Love that it doesn't take up much space. Perfect to bring on road trips. Definitely a great value and a really fun game. Other similar games would cost quite a bit more.

This is a card game that reminds me of Cover your Assets, but it also has its own unique characteristics. It's the type of card game that is straightforward but lots of fun to play. The rest of the family was sad to see it brought back to college because they enjoyed it so much.

If you are looking for an all around fun game to play with friends, family or just anyone in general this is the game to own. The instructions are very easy to learn. There is a lot of stealing but that’s the fun part. A typical round takes about 30-44 minutes depending on how greedy your players are :)I have given this game to at least 5 different people and each love it! Great gift for any occasion. Also check out the 2nd version for different card choices.

Interesting goat themed game for family fun. I didn't like that it disguises the "game of the year" with a small "goat" at the top so really doesn't mean anything (how many goat games are even out there?). However, the game does have some pretty fun elements and cool/funny designs on the cards so overall not too bad of a game and could make for a good gift for anyone who's into these kind of board games.

We love this game.
