Happy Salmon 90-Second Action Card Game with 98 Cards for 3 to 8 Players in Single or Four-Pack Options
A 90-second action card game gets three to eight players talking, moving and matching partners at the same time. Exploding Kittens Happy Salmon uses 98 illustrated action cards to create a lively race suited to parties, family gatherings and quick game-night breaks.
Each player works through a personal stack by calling out the action shown, finding another player with a matching card and completing the paired motion together. Both players then discard that card, and the first person to clear the entire stack wins. Simultaneous play makes the room active and noisy, so choose an open area away from fragile objects and explain comfortable alternatives to any physical gesture before starting. Select one game or a four-pack before ordering; each documented game includes 98 cards and instructions, while the larger option supplies multiple copies. The source recommends Happy Salmon for ages six and up and lists about 90 seconds per round. Supervise children, stop any unsafe movement and count every card before returning it to the box. Keep cards dry and allow seated participation when needed.
