Stink Bug

The bug out cards game!

Players search through a pile of Leaf cards, trying to make matches. Special bug cards are giving in the leaves too. There are some good bugs (Love Bugs and Butterflies) and some not-so-good bugs (Sneak Bugs and Stink Bugs) that have special powers.

To play the Stink Bug Card Game – you remove all the “bug” cards and divide the remainder of the leaf cards into two piles.

Place one pile face up (colorful leaves up) and the other pile face down.

Insert all of the bug cards into the face down pile – except one stink bug card which you will place into the face up pile.

Shuffle both piles of cards and then swirl them around into a big center pile with cards overlapping on top of each other.

The first player – usually the youngest child – must pick up a leaf card from the big pile.

The card that he or she selects should be on top of all the other cards and must NOT have any cards overlapping on top of it.

They will place this card face up in front of them – and so on and so forth with each player.

The object of the game is to get as many matching pairs of leaves as possible.

However, if you pick a dreaded stink bug card, you will have to put all your unmatched cards back into the leaf pile!

This will set you back in the game.

If you draw any of the other bug cards, depending on the type of bug you pick up – there are certain actions you will have to take.
