Wolf and seven goats is a reverse werewolf matchbox game from Japan. The game is based upon the classic folk tale of The Wolf and the Seven Young Goats, in which a wolf impersonates the Mother goat and gains entry to the goats' home to consume the youngsters.
In this game, the Mother goat is trying to identify which are her children, to allow them back indoors, but to keep out any wolves. However, if a wolf is identified, the wolves win the game and the goats lose. Only by letting only all the goats in do the goats win.
The game is one of the matchbox series of games, and has a set of cards for seven goats (three of which are special), and two wolves. The players have voting tokens. As the game was produced through a crowdfund campaign in Japan, additional cards may have been added at production, such as a goat card based upon the designer's prior game Amabie.
