Dig

Deck: Full 52-card Animal Packs deck Players: 2–6 players

Objective

Collect points by safely revealing and banking cards from four piles while avoiding predators.

Setup

Shuffle the full deck and deal it into four face-down piles of thirteen cards each. Leave room beside them for a shared discard pile.

Gameplay

On your turn, choose one of the four piles to dig from. You may choose a different pile each turn. Flip cards from that pile one at a time, adding their Pack Rank values to your running total. You may stop at any time to bank your revealed cards, adding their total to your score. Once you bank, your turn ends. If a pile runs out of cards, your turn ends automatically. Predator Cards Reveal a Pack Rank 4: your turn ends. Discard all cards revealed this turn. Reveal a Pack Rank 5: your turn ends. Discard all cards revealed this turn and lose 5 points. All discarded cards are placed in a shared pile beside the decks.

Winning the Game

The game ends when a player reaches 25 banked points or when all four piles are empty. The player with the highest total score wins.

Tips & Variations

Use Pack Rank values (1–5) as card numbers.
