Early Bird Game

The quickest bird rules the roost in this swift card game! Players race to get rid of all their numbered bird food cards with some lively challenges along the way! Fend off squirrels, chase worms, and build birdhouses - while you get your wings flapping for fast flying, energetic fun!

The player who does the best worm impression gets to flip the first card from the draw pile to start play. They reveal the top card, place it next to the draw pile (which starts the discard pile), and shout "UP!" to announce the direction of play. All players play at the same time.

Racing to get rid of cards, players may play a card that is one higher than the card on the top of the discard pile, play the same number card as the top of the discard pile to reverse the direction, or play a challenge card. Players may only play 1 card at a time.

Challenge cards include Build a Birdhouse, Squirrel Twirl, NUTS!, Leave the Nest, and Worm!

The player who runs out of cards first wins the round. After 5 rounds, the player who won the most rounds wins the game!
