Pros & Cons
Pros
If you have ever played apples to apples or cards against humanity this game, is nothing like that, but if you have played pit or rummy this game is sorta kinda like those. This game is a blast! Avid game players.
My 9 and 8 yrs old love it. The game itself is quite simple in its content and play mechanics. It's also rather small so it's a good travel game to tuck into a suitcase/tote.
I love the trading aspect - that usually results in more rivalry than trying to win lol. It never gets boring because there’s no one strategy that seems to work every time.
Cons
It's just not all that good, and certainly not deserving at all of the rating it has on here. Even the back cover i got has the cards depicted half and half, while the photo of the back of the game here on amazon is all in english.
Highlights
Packaging/appearance
The packaging was very organized and instructions clear

The mechanics revolve around very looselydefined trading of cards you can trade cards for cards for a specific card or other game action on a subsequent turn for a tbd favor later for refusing to trade a specific card to another player or even for outofgame stuff — i once saw someone trade cards for the last slice of pizza so gameplay can be simple or very complex and transactional or just goofy depending on the group youre playing with bigger groups make for a wilder game

We get together and play our beans spotify playlist eat beans and play the bean game as we like to call we have played it so much that certain people have claimed monopolies on certain cards which we strive to get them to avoid

Part of the gameplay is bartering with other players which can be fun or frustrating

The only problem i have right now is that i dont have anyone to play this game with because my two sisters dont see eye to eye on the trading and bartering so they are refusing to play

It takes a couple rounds of going through it to teach people the first time in until you learn how to play it it doesn’t seem very fun
