Mensch ärgere Dich nicht: Das Kartenspiel*

Players aim to replicate the frustration of the classic board game by using cards instead of dice. To set up, number cards (1-40) are laid out in rows, and each player receives two dice cards. On their turn, players play a dice card to either start a new row or add to an existing one. They can steal cards from opponents and must keep track of their points on paper, with the game ending when a player reaches a set point total based on the number of players.
