You're sitting at the table, playing with your best friend, your row of cards is perfectly aligned (courtesy of BGA), one animal away from victory and then your best friend sends you a smile emoji... They play the Crab. Your carefully built row shuffles sideways, your Alliance crumbles, and just like that, you're starting over.
That's Collect! in a nutshell.
The setup couldn't be simpler: draw a card, place it in your row, use your animal's ability. You're racing to line up 4 identical animals, it is called an Alliance, and claim the Crown before anyone else does. Sounds easy but it’s not. And that's the whole point.
See, every animal in this deck has an agenda. The Crocodile quietly buries your best card. The Monkey swaps your prized piece for their junk. The Parrot gambles everything on a coin flip. And the Chameleon? That sneaky little wildcard is whatever it wants to be. Every turn feels like a tiny heist where you're never quite sure who's robbing whom.
Collect! balances the two things that make games memorable: the joy of a solid plan, and the chaos of watching it fall apart. You'll think three turns ahead. Someone will ruin it in one. You'll laugh, groan, and immediately deal again.
It has that rare quality where even losing feels fun, because you were this close, and next round, you're sure of it.

We’d like to thank Jérémy Ducret and Johannes Goupy, the game designers, as well as the folks at CMON for letting us add their game to the platform. We’d also like to thank Moof, for the BGA port.
This was your Monday release.
In the immortal words of every ruined strategy ever: “That escalated quickly.” Take care and play fair…
Collect! 牌列必須繼續
你和你最好的朋友坐在桌旁玩遊戲，你的牌陣排列得完美（多虧了BGA），距離勝利只差一張動物牌，這時你的朋友發來一個笑臉表情……他/她打出了螃蟹。你精心構築的牌陣瞬間被打亂，你的聯盟土崩瓦解，一切又得從頭再來。
這就是 Collect! 的簡要介紹。
遊戲規則極為簡單：抽一張牌，放在你的牌列中，使用你所選動物的能力。你的目標是比拼誰能先湊齊4個相同的動物（稱為「聯盟」），並奪取王冠。聽起來容易，做起來難。而這正是遊戲的精髓所在。
你看，這副牌裡的每隻動物都有自己的計畫。鱷魚會悄悄地把你最好的牌埋起來。猴子會用它自己的破爛牌跟你交換珍貴的牌。鸚鵡會把一切都押在拋硬幣上。至於變色龍？這張狡猾的小萬用牌想變成什麼樣子就變成什麼樣子。 每一回合都像是一場小型劫案，你永遠搞不清楚到底是誰在偷誰的東西。
Collect! 巧妙地平衡了遊戲最令人難忘的兩大要素：精心策劃的喜悅，以及眼睜睜看著它崩潰的混亂。你自以為能看透接下來的三步棋，但總會有人在一回合內把你的心血毀得精光。你時而大笑、時而哀怨，然後迫不及待地再來一局。
它有一種難得的魅力，即使失敗也讓人感到快樂，因為你離勝利如此之近 ，而下一輪，你肯定能贏。
