and then the late night, silly, simple, quick, dexterity games were here to stay at WBC. Here comes another.

This entry from Valley Games is a fast paced game of driving through a forest and swerving to miss the wildlife. The game consists of a small rbber squeaky car and 112 cards each bearing an animal image in a particular color. Players simultaneously try to match either the animal or the color (a la Crazy 8s) to those they have already avoided. When three of the same color or animal appear at the same time, hit the squeaky car to Beep! Beep! your horn and get them out of the way.

The player who avoids the most animals wins.

Beep! Beep! is an excellent game for tournament play as one hour is more than enough to complete the five rounds of best out of five matches. In tournament play, players check their opponent's pile at the end of a match to ensure that each card was placed fairly. Simply take the opponent's smallest pile and deal the cards face up on to the table - beginning with the botom card. This will allow you to follow the order that the cards were placed on the pile and quickly confirm that the animal color or type matched each time. If a discrepancy is found, simply deduct two points for the card in question and continue checking from that card assuming it was correct.
