Description

As with the board game Camel Up, Camel Up: The Card Game has players betting on camels as they make their way down a racetrack. Each player has some knowledge about which camels can move — and how far they can go when they do finally decide to move — but they can't be sure of when each one will move, so they'll just have to guess which ones will end in front of the others, hoping to earn a bit of money while doing so.

Camel Up: The Card Game was first released as Camel Up Cards. The second edition of the game features revised artwork and a crazy camel similar to those in Camel Up (Second Edition) that race backward on the track.

Quotes (from this video)
  • So, because of that, I actually never got a copy of it um and haven't played it.
  • Um so, you drive cars around and shoot at each other. That's basically the game.
  • Looks like Carcassonne with Islands. That looks pretty good.
  • Do we need a card game version of it? And the answer to that is we really don't. Just play Camel Up.
  • This is a war game from Don Greenwood, Avalon Hill.
  • But if you like choose your own adventures type games, that's what this is.
  • It is a tile laying game that is about as exciting as it looks in this picture here.
  • So if you like Klask, um which is a fantastic two-player game, this is just a version for four.
  • I really like awkward guests, so why didn't I play the second one?
  • He gave it Seal of Approval. A seven out of 10. Well, there you go.
  • I think I'm going to have to go with the Bottom of it. It is a fantastic three-player trick-taking game that I like very much and think you definitely should check out.
  • If you really like what we're doing here at the Dice Tower, then there are different ways to support the Dice Tower. One of those ways is through Patreon.
