PLAY CARDS. CREATE MONSTERS. TRY TO DEFEAT AN ARMY OF BABIES.

Bears vs Babies is a card game where you build incredible monsters who go to war with horrible, awful babies. Stitch together a Handsome Salmon armed with knives and burritos, or a Pomeranian of Light and Wonder in business attire who is being piloted by a robot-squirrel. Give your creations limbs, weapons, and special hats to help prepare them for the inevitable infant onslaught. In this hilarious game of strategic, benevolent betrayal, you win by eating more babies than anyone else.

quick step guide

Unfold

Unfold the playmat in the middle of the table.

Shuffle

Shuffle the cards REALLY WELL. Deal five cards face-down to each play. Players may look at their own hand.

Baby Cards

f you get a Baby Card (any card with the word "Baby" on it) in your initial hand, put it face-down on the playmat on the matching color.

Draw a new card to replace it so you still have five cards; repeat as necessary.

Pick who goes first

Roughly separate the remaining deck into three Draw Piles and put them face-down on the playmat.

Pick a player to go first.
(Some sample criteria: furriest, most recent tantrum, most body parts, etc.)

Playing Cards

You can play up to two cards on your turn to build Monsters. You must play a Head Card to start building any Monster. Add strength by adding additional body parts.

Drawing Cards

If you can't play two cards, you can draw a card instead. Drawing a card or playing a card is an "action". On your turn, you can perform two actions: draw or play a card.

Reviews Summary
Customers say this card game brings loads of laughs with its wacky monster-building fun. Many reviews highlight how easy it is to pick up and play, though some mention needing time to get the rules down. The game sparks joy for both two-player sessions and family game nights, though several note it needs plenty of table space. Reviews often mention the creative artwork and ever-changing gameplay that keeps things fresh. While most find it super entertaining, a few point out the initial learning curve.
