Pros
none
Cons
- Aimed too low, meant for kids but not very robust.
- Luck is dependent on other players' lack of skill.
- Super basic with unexciting components (just cubes).
- Lack of strategic decisions.
Thematic elements
- Wombats pooping
Comparison games
- Cats Knocking Things Off Ledges
- Animal Upon Animal
Mechanics (from transcript analysis)
- Push Your Luck — On your turn you will decide whether you want to poo or whether you want to wipe. If you poo, that means you're going to reveal the top wombat poop card and you're going to take that piece of wombat poop and place it out onto the board. If you wipe, you're out of the round and you score points equal to the number of poop cubes in the tower.
- Stacking — You have to stack pieces of wombat poop onto the tower.

Quotes (from this video)
- So Wombat Poo is the first one we're going to take a look at here.
- So Wombat Poo, not a big fan, but recognize that Joey Games features animals and stuff about Australia and so yeah, we're just in a lot of ways not the target audience and that's okay.
- The next game is Wanted Wombats.
- So also absolute silly rule set. I mean, this When I first read the rules of this, I thought Is that the whole game? That's the whole game.
- it is shockingly more fun than it sounds like it should be.
- As gamers look at this and go, this is going to be so stupid. Three. You flip it over and it's a three and suddenly they're hooked.
- I bet I can get it. 10. 10. 10. Yes.
- What I like about this, too, is you have those moments as board gamers where everyone's kind of coming in and you need that filler game.
- Is it a great game? No, not really. Right, but is it more fun than it should be in a lot of ways? Yeah, absolutely.
- So yeah, uh I really do like Wanted One Bat despite its super simple but adorable rule set.
- Don't step in wombat poo and Catch your catch your Wanted One Bat.
- Are there any other wombat games coming out cuz seriously?
