Quirk! is a new family card game from Gibsons that's suited for two to six players, who will need to show off how silly they can be by doing their best character impressions. Ultimately, players are challenged to collect the most Quirks they can to win—and this can be done by matching sets of characters like ninjas, dragons and superheroes.
Quirk got its start as a Kickstarter launch from independent game designer Emma May and Gibsons has now teamed up with Emmerse Studios to licence the funny family card game. The new version of the game offers all the fun of the original but with new characters, new packaging and all-new Mischief cards that disrupt the game whenever they pop up.
