Crab vs. Octopus is a discard game for 2 players.
A game is played in several rounds. In each round, players take turns until one of them passes, either because they can no longer play or because they choose to stop.
At the beginning of each round, players draw cards to fill their hands to 5 cards. Starting with the first player, each player plays a card and applies any effects. The card played must have a value strictly greater than the card previously played by the opponent.
When a player cannot or does not want to play anymore, the round ends. The last player to have played a card wins the round and becomes the first player in the next round. All cards played are discarded, then a new round begins.
The game ends when a player plays, discards, or has the last card in their deck stolen (empty hand and deck); they then win the game.
2 game modes included:
Symmetrical: Both decks have identical powers. Fight on equal terms and try to come out on top!
