Flappy Families is a family-friendly board game for 2 - 5 players where players collect sets of native New Zealand birds while trying to avoid the Predators!
Players will have to engage their memory to try and match birds of the same families. As well as flipping cards face up on the board players will be putting their own cards face down onto the board. They will be able to use this information to try and make future matches - unless another player foils their plan!
At the end of the game the player with the best collection of birds, judged by having large families and by collecting birds from the special bonus point families, will be crowned the winner.
The game features 51 unique illustrations of native New Zealand birds, as well as the fearsome predator: the Stoat. The beautiful illustrations have been made by the talented Auckland-based Sam Kim.
Andy is a web developer and part time game designer and Anna is a kindergarten relief teacher. They came up with the idea for this game 6 years ago when their children were 4, 6, and 8 years old. They're now 9, 12, and 14 years old and still love playing Flappy Families. Over the years the project has at times been on the backburner as demands of jobs and family took over. Over the last half a year they've been pushing hard to get the game ready. They now have the immense pleasure of being able to share their game with you and making it a reality!
