Here in Australia, I noticed something a little bit funny around my board game collection. I noticed these different shaped stacks of cubes around my house. Not quite sure who left it there, but they seemed pretty intriguing to me. So, I decided to do a little bit of investigating and realized that these cube-shaped structures are in fact from a very famous, well-known Australian animal known as a wombat. Yes, this is wombat poo. Wombats are cute burrowing Australian marsupials who get their name from the language of the Dharug people. Wombats can run surprisingly fast, up to 40 km/h. Their poo is cube-shaped and they often use it to mark their territory. So, if you see some, don't touch it. It's a signal, a message, a fence post, a marker. This is a game where you'll be flipping over cards and stacking different shaped cubes. On your turn, you'll decide to flip a card or wipe. If you wipe, you'll score one point for each cube currently in the tower. Otherwise, get stacking. It's a light Australian game. I love it.
