About the game
Addicting fun card game! Help critters escape the flooding river with your herd of of Capybaras. Form long interweaving chains of matching critters and backgrounds to score points. Most points wins. Each card has a column of three different critters on the front and a capybara on the back. Either place the critters on one of your capybaras, or add a capy to your roster. Each game has variable powers that let you manipulate your tableau and the board, and variable board setups that shift your strategies. Solo mode is drafting against two bots. —description from the publisher

Questions and answers
Capybara Crush supports 1–4 players according to the catalogue. This range comes from the publisher’s listed player count, so the game can be set up for any group size within it. Some setups, rules and scoring details may still vary by player count, so check your edition’s rulebook for the exact configuration.
The listed playing time for Capybara Crush is 20–45 minutes. This is the publisher’s estimate for a full game. The actual duration depends on the group, the player count and familiarity with the rules: first sessions usually run longer, while experienced groups often finish faster. Setup and teaching time are not included in this estimate.
The catalogue lists Capybara Crush for ages 8 and up. This is the publisher’s recommendation and reflects reading demands, rule complexity and small components rather than theme alone. Younger players can often join with help from an adult, so check the age guidance on your edition and consider your group’s experience with board games.
Capybara Crush has a complexity rating of 1.7 out of 5 from BoardGameGeek players, which makes it a light game. The rating reflects how much rules knowledge, planning and decision-making a typical game demands. Expect a longer first teach for heavier games, and use a preparation guide before game night.
