Chubby Bear Salmon Gobble 2026

Take the role of the bears at Katmai National Park trying to catch and eat salmon to gain weight in preparation of hibernating through the winter.

In this push-your-luck set collection game you'll roll dice to try to catch as many fish as possible before your opponents get them first. Balance catching the biggest fish, the most fish, and the tastiest fish to score special goals and out gain your fellow bears.

Inspired by Fat Bear Week, Chubby Bear Salmon Gobble features handmade fish dice, hand sewn bags, and more!

Players take turns trying to roll Paw Dice to try and catch Fish Dice rolled into the shared river. On their turn, they may choose to risk their currently held Fish to try and catch more, or to gobble the Fish they've already caught and secure them for scoring.

Gobbled fish can then be used to satisfy goal cards, increasing the amount of weight (points) gained. Once all Fish have been caught the game ends and whichever bear has gained the most weight is the winner!
