Póker a Voces is a board game released in 2025 for 3–6 players, 20–30 minutes per game, and ages 14 and up. It was designed by Jorge J. Barroso, David Amorin, and Jesús Fuentes and its main mechanics are Trading, Simultaneous Action Selection, and Betting and Bluffing.
In Póker a Voces (Shouting Póker), bluffs are shouted, hands are built mid-chaos, and silence is not an option. This fast-paced party game reimagines poker in a wild, shouty format. Players simultaneously trade cards by yelling out how many they want to exchange — but never revealing what they’re trading. Build three hands of five cards, assign your bets, and go head-to-head in a battle of memory, bluffing, and quick decisions. The twist? Special animal cards like Raccoons, Mandrills, and Emperor Penguins add unpredictable effects and wild combos that can flip the table (figuratively… hopefully). Raccoon: Wild card. If 2 or more in the same hand, those players are eliminated. Dove: Wild card only if another is revealed. If you have 2, you're eliminated. Capybara: Cannot be combined. If an odd number is revealed, the worst hand wins. Mandrill: Draw 3 cards; each player with a mandrill chooses 1 to replace it. Penguin: Cannot be combined, but if you win with it, gain +10 extra points. —description from the publisher
