"Ultimate betrayal game."
5 stars"
Purchased on Mighty Ape

So much fun! Once you get the hang of it, you can really betray your playmates and gang up on them. Better to play with at least 4 people, although two was fun. It was just over very quickly.

"Deal with Two Problems at Once"
5 stars"
Purchased on Mighty Ape

Every game that James Ernest (Cheap Ass Games) has designed is brilliant. This one is also heaps of fun. Send mad cows (bulls mostly to be honest) to detonate mines in the North of France. The game is engaging, strategic, and a joy to play. The names and pictures of the bulls and cows are hilarious… Except that my namesake is not a card bull you want in your herd.

"Brilliant fun!"

Great little game, nice quality. The instructions don't cover every situation, but that adds to the fun. Highly recommend it, go blow up some cows!

Description

Europe. Summer 1997. You and your most creative friends have discovered two problems with a common solution: mad cows in England and unexploded bombs in France. You've decided to bring these two powder kegs together just to see what happens – and you wouldn't say “no” to a little money on the side, so round up your herd, march them through France, and set them loose behind the Cordon Rouge. If you're lucky, you'll come home rich before Greenpeace gets hold of you.

Either way, there's something magical about blowing up cows.

Unexploded Cow; Deluxe Edition is a money game in which players are trying to collect enough points to win the pot. On every turn, you will buy cows and pay for special effects by putting money in the pot, then try to discover bombs with your own cows in an effort to take money out of the pot. All along, you will be earning points from the French as you liberate town after town from the terrors of unexploded bombs, and the player who scores the most points gets whatever's left in the pot.

Unexploded Cow; Deluxe Edition is best played as a series of short games, each of which takes about thirty minutes. The game is quite simple and very chaotic: You'll have a blast.
