Create teams of two players each (max of 5 teams). Each team will meet privately to come up with a non vocal signal to indicate when either teammate collects 4 of the same Crab Card.

Each player gets a hand of 4 cards.

One side goes at a time. On a side’s turn, all players on that side can simultaneously trade any card from their hand with a card from the middle of the table (The Ocean).

When you get 4 of the same Crab Card, you can't say anything out loud. Instead, when ready, give your secret signal to your teammate. Once they notice, they will point at you and shout, 'YOU’VE GOT CRABS!'

If they’re right, your team will get a point. But if they’re wrong, your team loses a point.

However if a player on another team thinks you’re passing a signal, they can point and shout, 'YOU’VE GOT CRABS!'

If they are correct, they take one of your points. If they are incorrect, take a Crab Token from the accusing player.

The game ends when the last Crab Token has been taken from the Crab Pot. At that point, all teams should add up their combined Crab Tokens. The team with the most Crab Tokens wins the game

The game is a reimplementation of the classic game Kemps, but with a different card distribution and breaking up the card swap phase by team.
