30 min
Light weight: Learn it in minutes

From BoardGameGeek

Pigeons are always hungry and eat whatever they find in front of them: your task is to feed your pigeons to make them happy or feed opponent pigeons to make them explode! The game is divided into turns, which proceed clockwise starting from the first player until the game ends. During your turn, choose to perform one of the following two actions: Search - Draw 2 cards from the Search deck. If the deck is exhausted, shuffle the discard pile and form a new draw pile. or Feed - Play up to 2 cards between Food and Action cards from your hand. The only limitation in playing cards is that you can only play 1 Food card on opponent Pigeons each turn. The goal of the game is to make your pigeons happy by feeding them with the correct amount of food and preventing them from exploding! The first player to achieve 2 or 3 Happy Pigeons (depending on the number of players) will be the winner! -description from the publisher
