The Card Game

A Family Game By Hamed Zaghaghi

The Xaghoul family had just wrapped up one of the most fun-filled parties their home had ever seen. The night had been full of laughter, music, and plenty of fizzy drinks. 

As the last guest waved goodbye, the family turned to face the aftermath—streamers, confetti, and dozens of empty cans scattered across the living room. But as they began to tidy up, something strange happened. 

The cans, which had seemed harmless moments ago, started to shake and rattle, as if they were whispering to each other. It was then that the family realized: the cans were super angry and mad, and if they didn’t collect them quickly, something horrible might just happen.

Are you ready to help them collect all the cans?

Each room card has a special effect when collecting cans in that room.

Plan first. Execute later.

Plan your cleaning strategy before the mischievous, angry cans can strike

By thinking ahead, you’ll outsmart the chaos, gather cans efficiently, and stay one step ahead of both your opponents and the unpredictable house!

About The Game

One Sunday evening, while my wife and I were returning home, an unexpected encounter occurred. A poorly dressed woman approached us and asked to check our bag. We were taken aback, unsure of her intentions. A few days later, we discovered she was simply searching for empty soda cans.

This experience inspired me to create a game that mirrors such unexpected moments in life, reminding us of the importance of kindness and understanding. In this game, players can explore life’s surprises and challenges, while embracing the joy and compassion that come from these encounters.

Remember, life is a game we play only once—so let’s be kind and have fun along the way.
