FAQs
Can we play with 2 people or more than 6?
Panda Party plays best with 3-6 people, but this doesn't mean other group sizes can't play!
For 2 players, you just need to make a few tweaks to the deck, spelled out on the how to play FAQs.
For 7 players, play to four pandas instead of five so it doesn't run all night, and add the two Bambooster packs so the deck keeps up with the bigger table. For 8 or more, best to pair up!
Can kids under 8 play?
It depends on the kid, on how confident they are with reading and adding up small numbers. We've heard kids as young as 5 playing on their own against parents and siblings, while others prefer to team up with an adult.
To make Panda Party accessible to as many people as possible, we've also got a simplified version of the rules on the how to play FAQs.
How long does a game take?
Generally 15 to 45 minutes, mostly driven by player count (15mins for 3 players, 45mins for 6). The other driver of duration is how vicious everyone gets. If the table starts ganging up to stop whoever's in front, expect the long end.
Rounds can be quick and the pacing really picks up towards the pointy end when someone's about to win.
What kind of game is it, and do I need to be into board games?
It's a party card game, in the same corner of the shelf as Exploding Kittens and Unstable Unicorns. Light, fast, social, no rulebook marathon.
You don't need any experience: people who've never played a card game before can understand the rules quickly and even win on their first go!
For more experienced gamers, Panda Party is a great icebreaker to your games night and we have no doubt you'll find unique ways to strategise.
Do I need the Bambooster packs?
Nope! The base game is complete on its own: 154 cards, a rulebook, everything you need to play. Bamboosters are 10-card themed add-ons that include new pandas, actions and shocks into your game.
How fast is delivery, and do you ship overseas?

The gameplay is fast-paced, making it perfect for family game nights, and it keeps both kids and adults engaged from start to finish. The rules are simple enough for younger players to pick up quickly, but there's enough interaction and friendly competition to keep everyone laughing.
The cards are well-made, the artwork is fun, and games don't drag on, making it easy to play multiple rounds in one sitting. It works especially well with larger groups, creating plenty of memorable moments.
A great choice for families, parties, or anyone looking for a fun and lighthearted game night gift.
I didn't really know what to expect with this game, so many new games try hard to be unique, but end up becoming overly complicated, always requiring frequent referring to the instructions. But not Panda Party, this only takes minutes to get the feel of, and before long, you're laughing and playing like a pro. It's one of those games where things can turn around quickly and a player on the verge of winning can find themselves losing everything. It's a simple yet clever game and the quality of the cards is excellent. Definitely recommend it for a family or group of friends of 4 to 5 people.
Panda Party has quickly become one of our favourite additions to family game night. The rules are straightforward enough that we were able to start playing almost immediately, yet there is enough strategy and unpredictability to keep everyone fully engaged. Games move along at a nice pace, usually finishing within half an hour, which makes it very easy to squeeze in several rounds.
The aim may seem simple at first, but the moment someone gets close to victory, the chaos begins. Stealing pandas, surprise cards and unexpected twists create some genuinely hilarious moments, with plenty of playful accusations and last-minute comebacks. It strikes a brilliant balance between luck and strategy, meaning experienced players and complete beginners can all have a chance of winning.
The colourful artwork and quality of the cards are excellent, and the inclusion of instruction cards makes learning the different actions much easier, especially during the first few games. While it is family-friendly and suitable for younger players, adults will soon find themselves becoming surprisingly competitive.
This game thrives on friendly sabotage, so it is best enjoyed with people who appreciate a bit of mischievous fun. With four or five players, the experience is especially lively and entertaining. Whether you're playing with family or enjoying a few drinks with friends, Panda Party delivers plenty of laughs and memorable moments, making it a fantastic crowd-pleaser that keeps everyone asking for "just one more round".
Panda Party is a fast-paced and entertaining card game that brings lots of laughter to family game nights. The rules are easy to learn, and the gameplay is exciting with plenty of surprises, especially when stealing cards from other players or dealing with unexpected shocks.
The panda-themed artwork is cute and appealing, and the cards are good quality. It's a great choice for both kids and adults, keeping everyone involved and competitive. The game rounds are relatively short, so it's easy to play multiple times in one sitting.
The only downside is that younger children may need a little help understanding some of the strategies at first, but once they get the hang of it, they will have a lot of fun. Overall, a fantastic party game that encourages interaction, laughter, and friendly competition.
This game is fun to play with kids, and I like that it can easily be a quick game if the players decide it to be. It includes a few different types of cards, including foods that act as currency, pandas, and action cards. The game seems overwhelming at first, but the instructions explain everything clearly and even show the intended layout of the table, making it very easy to understand for children aged 8 and above.
It comes with one main objective: the first person to collect five pandas wins. During rounds, you can buy pandas, play actions such as stealing pandas from other players, use powers from your gold pandas to play guessing games, or choose to pass. Pandas can also be auctioned, and actions within turns can be stopped by other players if they have the right cards in hand. The pandas themselves, their names, outfits, and powers, are all quite entertaining, and the combination of these elements makes the game really enjoyable.
If the game starts to feel boring, players can stop halting others from reaching the five-panda goal, or if everyone is still having fun, turns can be voluntarily skipped to keep things going. The cards pack nicely into the durable game box, and the whole set is compact for easy storage. Overall, this is a fun game and a great option for family game night if you have older children.
