About the game
There’s a goose on the loose! Actually, there’s a LOT of geese and they’re completely out of control - you’ll have to round them up! In this fast & fun family game, 2-5 players will gather food cards, collect chunky cardboard geese, and seek out precious golden eggs. HONK! is a simple game that helps introduces younger players to strategic games. It has low reliance on luck, and is designed to be fun for adults to play too! On their turn, a player can either collect food or feed a goose. Each of the 8 different goose breeds has a specific diet, and so the correct food cards must be used to claim them. Feeding a goose rewards the player with an egg (worth 1 point each), and a bonus egg for each goose of the same breed already in that players' collection. The geese at the bottom of the pile conceal golden eggs, which are worth 1-3 points. The player with the most points wins. —description from the publisher

Questions and answers
HONK! supports 2–5 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 HONK! is 15–30 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 HONK! for ages 5 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.
HONK! has a complexity rating of 1.5 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.
