If you are unfamiliar with Desmond the Moon Bear, Mine Turtle, Skateboard Cow and the Kid Who Likes Trains, then you probably don’t know Mr Muffin either. Although only appearing a few times in the asdfmovies (pronounced ass-duff), Mr Muffin went on to feature in an annoyingly catchy song elaborating on how he just wants to be eaten and die. He also has put his name to the brand new card game from Big Potato Games in conjunction with the asdfmovie team – Muffin Time. Muffin Time offers a confident and fun alternative to chaotic party card games, like Exploding Kittens and Fluxx. It’s the kind of game that everyone needs at least one of in their collection and Muffin Time might just be the best. Action cards can be used to draw more cards, steal cards from your opponent, or completely change the game.
