I have to say this game snuck up on me not seen any news or info but just got to play a demo copy at the recent Raiders of the Game Cupboard thanks to Spirit Games.

The rules are very simple and easy to pick up and play, it accommodates up to 6 players and is immensely funny/silly.
The cards are full of double entendre phrases the adults will get straight away and you can not help yourself adding in other jokes at the table as this gets played

The idea is the first squirrel (player) to accumulate a stash worth 20 or more wins, sounds easy. There are various cards that provide defense or allow you to grab other squirrels nuts (see what I mean), Mayhem and Antics cards that add various effects on other players.

This game is light and fluffy but that is to its credit as it is immense fun to play providing a great start or end to an evenings gaming. It plays really quickly, between 5-15mins even with a large group, which means when you stop laughing after the first play you can try it again and again.

Worth adding to you collection.

I would  agree & add that, and add that  with a second pack mixed in it might run to nine players at need. Very Fun Very Silly would be enjoyed by children who hopefully wouldn't get the jokes.

Breaks the ice nicely

I like how short it is as well as the exceptional art, - not to mention the theme!
Seeing all those nuts did make me hungry for some pecan pie though.

One thing I do miss is custard.  Squirty cream in a can is the standard over here.
