About the game

In Wriggle Roulette, players take turns reaching into a bag filled with eel- and snake-shaped wooden pieces, trying to pull out as many eels as possible — but if the number of snakes grabbed by all players exceeds the limit, a "snake outbreak" occurs, and the player who grabbed the most pieces loses all of their eels. You want to grab more than everyone else to score big, yet a snake outbreak would be devastating. Will you grab a bunch? Just a few? Or back out entirely? Read your opponents' expressions and control your own greed to make the right call.
