Jungle Speed
Description
Jungle Speed is a card game focused on visual speed and reflexes. Players reveal cards simultaneously and, when identical symbols appear, they must dive for the totem in the center of the table. The tension is constantly increasing and any mistake is costly. It is a physical, chaotic and very fun game, ideal for large groups and lively sessions.

How to play
Each player reveals cards in their pile. When two cards show the same symbol, those players (or all if there is a multiple match) compete to take the totem. Whoever grabs it correctly hands his cards to a rival; If you make a mistake, you are penalized. Whoever runs out of cards wins.
Why you might like it
The games are fast and generate immediate laughter, with a physical component that makes it very different from other family games. It's easy to explain and perfect for breaking the ice or livening up meetings. If you are looking for a short, intense and very social game, Jungle Speed fits the bill perfectly.
What to keep in mind
There is no strategic depth or long-term decisions, so it can get tiring if you play too many times in a row. It may not be suitable for very competitive players or people who don't like reflex games.
