Mimic is a new game by a first time publisher, Funmaker Games. Players attempt to collect sets of like animals of the same color from a set of cards laid out on a 6 card x 6 card grid. Players also have a set of special power cards that allow you to bend the rules (play an extra card, etc.) The first player to make five matches wins the game.
From the publisher:
MIMIC is a quick strategic card game based on a new twist on set building.
Two ways to play:
BASIC and ADVANCED
Your goal is to strategically utilize the Power Cards in the game, your wit, and a little bit of luck to create the necessary sets of Mimic Cards that would enable you to place your Score Cubes and win the game.
It is a 2 to 3 player game that takes from 20 to 30 minutes to play.
