About the game
During the night, we discovered a hunter trying to take the Gamusinos from our sanctuary. Luckily, we stopped her, but during the escape, all the animals escaped too! In Gamusinos, each player takes on the role of an expert in a specific animal… but their role will be secret. You'll know which animal they specialize in, but not whether that's for better or worse. It could be the hunter! Once these specialties are chosen, the animal cards are shuffled and distributed among the players, who will capture them through draft rounds. At the end of the game, the animals will award points… but their value will be modified by the specialist in that species. So, for example, a platypus with a value of 1 could become worth 2… or even 0, depending on the hidden role of the platypus expert. Your objective will be twofold: Score more points than the other experts. Discover the hunter who freed the animals to prevent her from taking the precious chamois. Therefore, during the capture, you must pay close attention to what the others are doing... every movement can be a clue! —description from the designer

Questions and answers
Gamusinos supports 2–6 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 Gamusinos is 10–20 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 Gamusinos 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.
Gamusinos has a complexity rating of 1.0 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.
