About the game

Move fast, make matches, and get ready to scream! Row Your Goat is a rapid-fire picture-matching, fast slapping game. Get rid of your cards by placing them in a grid. The second you see a matching set of 3 in a row, slap the nearest Lifesaver. Hurry, there's only a few of them. And if you don't grab one fast enough, you're left collecting cards. When you're down to one card, scream “ROW MY GOAT”, play your card, and slap a Lifesaver to win. It's fast, frantic, and fantastic as a party game, kid game, or a showstopper for family game night. —description from the publisher
