Cockroach Poker Game

Cockroach Poker by Jacques Zeimet (2004) is a cheeky bluffing game where the goal is not to win—but to not lose! Each of the 64 cards shows one of eight whimsical “creepy” critters (cockroach, bat, fly, rat, stink bug, spider, scorpion, toad). Players pass a mystery card face-down to opponents, claiming any creature—even one they might not hold. The recipient must either believe the bluff or call it out, or peek and pass it along. Whoever ends up with four of the same critter in front of them loses, making everyone else the unexpected victors. Fun, deceptive, and fast-paced—perfect for parties or game nights.
