Unstable Unicorns is a strategic card game for 2-8 players aged 8 and up, with an average playtime of 30-60 minutes. The objective is to be the first player to collect 7 Unicorns in your Stable by building a Unicorn army while disrupting opponents' progress. The game includes Magic, Instant, Upgrade, and Downgrade cards, adding tactical depth—players can counter moves with cards like "Neigh!" The base game contains 135 cards and a rulebook. Originally a Kickstarter success, it ranked among the platform’s top 100 most-backed projects and has surpassed 1 million copies sold globally. It received the 2019 People’s Choice Award for Toy of the Year. Multiple expansions are available, including Unstable Unicorns Adventures, Christmas, Dragons, Nightmares, Rainbow Apocalypse, and Unicorns of Legend.
Things to Keep in MindA common point raised is the initial learning curve, with several users finding the instructions unclear or overly complex, often resorting to external video tutorials to fully understand gameplay. This complexity led some players to lose interest, and the game was occasionally described as less engaging or not ideal for only two players. Why You'll Like ItPlayers consistently describe Unstable Unicorns as a highly entertaining and engaging card game that fosters laughter and unexpected turns, keeping participants invested until the very end. The charming artwork is a recurring highlight, and while the game is accessible enough for older children, it also provides sufficient strategic depth to maintain adult interest for game nights.
