Preposterous Parrots 2025

In this preposterous card game, players step into the role of bird dealers competing to build the most colorful and outrageous aviary or raise enough money to purchase the illustrious phoenix, Mr Incredible. But these aren’t just any birds — every parrot has its own personality, from dramatic cockatoos to sassy little parakeets, and each one brings it's own role (and a lot of attitude) to your collection.

Gameplay mixes strategy and chaos: collect birds by hatching eggs, smuggling, trading, outbidding in auctions, or gambling with Bird Roulette — all to assemble the perfect flock before your rivals do. Eggs can be nurtured into parrots, some faster than others, giving you a strategic edge. But events like Migration can scatter your birds, and storms or rival players might delay or destroy your progress. Birds can’t be bought from the bank, so you’ll have to rely on clever trades, cunning actions, and occasional smuggling. Special action cards, such as the Bird Bully, make every turn unpredictable and full of excitement.

Win by claiming the legendary Phoenix (a.k.a. Mr. Incredible) — a bird so rare it makes peacocks look insecure — or by collecting enough parrots to become the ultimate feather tycoon… if your rivals don’t steal them first.
