Moose in the House (Gamewright)
Here's a card game we picked up on our last game/thrifting trip: Moose in the House. I almost got this from the Gamewright website after finding another game of theirs that we really enjoyed about a year ago. They have the rules PDFs for all their games, so you can get a feel for them. That's a good idea. I almost bought a few. The art is cute, worth some chuckles the first time you see them. The rules have some funny gags in them, ending with facts about moose. It plays out in a very simple way. Each player gets 4 cards to start, and each player has a "house" in front of them, a space where cards are played. You build houses by playing empty room cards in from of the other players. You don't build your own house at all. Each house can have a maximum of 3 empty room cards. To kick off the fun, when you get a Moose in the House card (the one with the moose walking through the front door), you play it on an opponent, after which that player can have moose
