There's a new Chinese restaurant in town and the dumpster out back is up for grabs. Who will be the last varmint standing to claim the turf as their own, the honorable RACOON or the loathsome POSSUM? “Critter Rasslin” is a 2 or 4 player card game based on hilarious wrestling moves to see who will gain dominance over the new territory! Take turns dealing damage to your opponent or defending against mortal blows. Once enough damage is accrued you can pin your opponent for the victory, or go for the TKO! ATTACK CARDS are given a damage level of 1 through 4. They are played in the opponent's DAMAGE PILE. They are the only cards placed in the opponent's damage pile, Others are discarded face up beside the player's deck. As ATTACK CARDS are played, they should be placed fanned out in front of their opponent in a manner so damage can be easily added up. The first player to dole out 21 (or more) damage points to their opponent AND play a PIN CARD on them is declared the winner. After a player reaches 21 or more damage they cannot play any cards after being pinned. A player may also win by knockout - inflicting 30 or more damage on an opponent with no PIN CARD required. There is a four player tag-team mode for more incredible critter chaos!
