The game that saves endangered sea turtle hatchlings

Too Many Turtles: The Card Game? Too Many Turtles is a tactical point builder card game in which two players fight over the course of up to 3 rounds to build the biggest army of turtles that they are able to gather. The player with the most points at the end of the round wins and the game goes to the first player to win 2 out of 3 rounds. On the other side, you have an army of daredevil turtles being controlled by humans trying to stop turtron from saving the world. Wielding terrible effect cards like Debilitating Pollution and Plastic, they will stop at nothing to keep the valiant hero Turtron from cleaning the environment and helping the turtle population to reassert itself. Thanks to our amazing partners at SEE Turtles, you’ll be able to save turtles no matter which deck you play! In fact, we will pledge to save at least 50 turtles for every person who backs our game. In other words, your figurative turtle saving antics can literally save endangered sea turtles in real life.

We do, however, allow for a series of wacky, and sometimes serious effect cards to increase competitive gameplay. As it stands, we have 4 different types of Effect Cards in the game: Add/Subtract HP from turtles – These cards can help you edge out your opponent when the round ends and it’s time to calculate scores. Remove Turtles from play – These cards (Such as House Fire pictured far left) can remove turtles from the field of play, keeping your opponent stuck in place.Explore a few more info on Too Many Turtles: The Card Game.

Counter Cards – Counter cards can be used to counter or react to effects cards played against you (One great example is Shell To Pay, pictured right). These cards can be extremely helpful for defending your turtle army. Turtle Movement/Ownership – As mentioned above, certain effects cards can affect turtle movement. Additionally, certain effects cards can allow you to locate and move cards in your deck or pond or even steal turtles from your opponents side of the field.
