About the game
Help Ralphie Parker get the BB gun and decoder ring he covets at Christmastime! Peek at present cards, "triple-dog-dare" other players to make risky trades, and beware of the bullies who are lurking in the deck. If you have the infamous "leg lamp" you can swipe another player's card, but act fast because you may not have the prized possession long. It's a lively game of "take that" and family laughs just in time for the holidays! —description from the publisher
