Bear Necessities in Alpha
Posted: 25 August 2026, 11:24
Hello everyone!
Bear Necessities (new card game by Johan Benvenuto & Gricha German) is now in Alpha and we're looking for reviewers to help us move to Beta.
Any help is much appreciated, thank you!
In Bear Necessities players draft cards to build their personal tableau of 12 cards, arranged in a 4x3 grid.
Every round you are going to choose two cards from your hand, one to add to your tableau and one to save for later.
The card you add to your tableu must be placed adjacent to at least one other card and activates its effect immediately. It also activates all adjacent cards, allowing you to creat powerful combos.
Then, you pass the remaining cards in your hand to your left, and add the card you previously saved to the new cards you receive.
Repeat until you have no cards left in your hand, then deal a new starting hand and continue playing for 12 rounds. After that, the player with the most points wins!
