Mantis 105-Card Game for 2-6 Players

Mantis is a cutthroat matching card game designed for two to six players aged seven and up. A typical round lasts about 10 minutes, making it a quick option for family game nights or casual gatherings. The simple steal-or-score mechanics create a back-and-forth battle that suits mixed-age groups.

105 Illustrated Cards and Instruction Manual

The box contains 105 cards featuring original mantis shrimp artwork from The Oatmeal plus an easy-to-follow instruction manual. The distinctive illustrations add visual appeal for children and adults alike, while the concise rules let new players start within minutes. No additional components or expansions are required to play the complete game.

Limited to 2-6 Players and 10-Minute Rounds

The game supports a maximum of six participants, so larger groups must split into multiple tables or choose a different activity. Each session averages 10 minutes, which may feel brief for players seeking a longer strategic experience. The fixed player count and short duration define the practical boundaries of the standard ruleset.
