About the game
Latest Addition of the Bohnanza-series for 2-6 players. Only playable with Ladybohn: Manche mögen's heiss! The set consist of 33 new cards: 8 babies 24 special male cards (2 of each kind) 1 counter card The cards can be used to exchange and "spice-up" the base game as the male beans (such as the Chauvinist Pig or Slacker) bear conditions on them which can alter the game play. 2 regular cards are replaced with "mama's beans". For Example: The Chauvinist Pig (a Saubohne, of course) only lets the lady beans be below the bean field. The metrosexual lets them get up front immediately. The Bachelor discards all babies to the discard pile. Those cards can really alter the gameplay. ...and then there's the Attack of the Little Rascals!
