Trash Bandits

Trash Bandits is a strategy card game where players take on the role of homeowners trying to protect their property from mischievous raccoons. The game is designed for players aged 8 and above and has a duration of 30-45 minutes. The theme revolves around raccoons invading your yard, and players must employ strategy and determination to keep these trash-loving critters away.

The game includes 144 cards, featuring basic bandits numbered 0 through 10 and special bandits with unique abilities. Players aim to build sets of raccoons in their yards while using special cards like Steal, Trash, Swap, and more to hinder opponents or enhance their own positions. The goal is to accumulate the fewest raccoons by the end of the game, with each round totaling the raccoon count in players' yards. The player with the least number of raccoons, or in case of a tie, the one with the lowest count in a single round, emerges as the winner. The game combines elements of strategy, card management, and a touch of humor in dealing with the raccoon invasion.
