You've got crabs (pré-joué) (EN)

The games in the L'As des jeux Bazar are pre-played games. They have been inspected by one of our game experts and are certified "Complete." You may find some minor imperfections, such as light wear on the box or on certain game components.

Get ready for some serious laughs as you team up in pairs for You've Got Crabs, a rowdy party game from the creators of Exploding Kittens. The concept is as simple as it is hilarious: each duo secretly invents a discreet signal to let their teammate know they just collected four matching crab cards. Hands move quickly around the Ocean, the shared pile of cards at the center of the table, while everyone swaps cards on the sly and keeps their eyes wide open for any suspicious tell from their opponents. The moment a player catches their partner's secret signal, they have to jump up and shout "You've Got Crabs!" to score a point, but watch out for false alarms: guessing wrong costs the team a point. Rival teams stay just as alert, ready to call out a poorly hidden signal to steal a crab token from the guilty team. The game ends once every crab token has been handed out, and the team holding the most tokens takes the win.

You've Got Crabs is for you if you love party games that run on bluffing, laughter and friendly betrayal between teammates. Whether it's a dinner with friends, a family game night or an impromptu get-together, this fast card game turns any group into a bunch of gleeful conspirators. Games wrap up in about 15 minutes, making it a great pick to fill a gap in the evening or to shake things up between heavier games.

Fun fact: You've Got Crabs is a modern reimagining of the classic card game Kemps, updated with a different card distribution and a team-based swapping rhythm that spices up the action. The game also shares its sense of humor with Exploding Kittens, the same team's other flagship creation, known for its biting illustrations and absurd tone.

The pen and pencil behind this crustacean chaos belong to Matthew Inman, the illustrator behind the popular webcomic The Oatmeal, and Elan Lee, co-creator of the Exploding Kittens phenomenon. The duo brings the same biting illustrations and irreverent humor that made their earlier games a hit, this time channeled into a fast-paced team-based game bursting with personality.
