Beasty Bar 3: Born to Be Wild is a board game released in 2019 for 2–4 players, 20 minutes per game, and ages 8 and up. It was designed by Stefan Kloß and Anna Oppolzer and its main mechanics are Hand Management and Take That.
The Beasty Bar game attracts more and more animals to the red carpet in front of the legendary bar. With Born to be Wild, it is the third time that twelve ""beasts"" show up there. The new animals add even more cunning feints, wild dynamics, comical situations, and finesse to the game. Following the well-known rules of Beasty Bar, all the animals of the "extended customer base" can be combined. Consequently, Born to be Wild can be played as a standalone game, but also together with all the other animals from the two previous Beasty Bar games. —description from the publisher
