What is Cockroach Poker
Cockroach Poker is a reverse set collection game that has nothing to do with poker – except that the game is all about bluffing, with cards that show cockroaches, rats and stink bugs. The goal is to force another player to collect 4 of any one type of critter.
The deck includes 64 cards, with eight copies of eight types of critters. To set up the game, shuffle the deck and deal the cards out to players.
On a turn, a player takes one card from their hand, lays it face down on the table, slides it to a player of their choice, and declares a type of critter, e.g., "Stink bug". The player receiving the card either
Accepts the card, says either "true" or "false", then reveals the card. If this player is wrong in their claim, they keep the card on the table in front of them face up; if they are right, the player who gave them the card places it face up before them.

This game is good. It also allowed me to sell my copy of skull as I use these cards to play the same game, where a cockroach is the skull and 2 of the other bugs are the roses. 2 for 1!
After playing several times I printed out a custom design, to have it in my collections
Esta bien para una o dos partidas cada cierto tiempo
