The definitive edition of the hyper-kinetic, rear-end matching challenge is here, featuring a silly grid-snapping layout and a punishing mad-dash race sequence for the ultimate cheeky family showdown.
Butts On Things (published by Gamewright) turns simple spatial pattern matching into a hilarious, laugh-out-loud table sprint. Moving away from standard hand-management card games where players quietly pass or hoard sets, this quick-playing filler forces you to build an ever-expanding grid right in the center of the table. The core objective is a frantic test of visual awareness: players place cards into rows or columns, attempting to bookend the ends of a line with matching cartoon butts to capture the entire sequence.
The primary hurdle lies in surviving the chaotic, real-time table race. Featuring the whimsical, vibrant illustrations of artist Brian Cook, the cards depict everyday objects—from alarm clocks to items of food—all sporting ridiculous rear ends. If you get distracted by the artwork and fail to spot an immediate match on your turn, you open the door for your opponents to trigger a "Grab a Buttload" scramble. It is a masterclass in high-interaction, pure family filler design where anyone can come from behind, wrapping up a wild and competitive session in a brisk 20 minutes.
