Cockroach Poker Royal

As in its parent game Kakerlakenpoker, Kakerlakenpoker Royal has nothing to do with poker – except that the game is all about bluffing, but with cards showing cockroaches, rats and stink bugs instead of queens, 10s and aces. To set up the game, shuffle the deck and deal the cards out to players. On a turn, a player takes one card from his hand, lays it face down on the table, slides it to a player of his choice, and declares a type of critter, e.g., "Stink bug".

Royal cards:

While for normal animal cards only one claim is “right“, the royal cards offer two “right“ claims: The pictured kind of animal or the claim “Royal“. Each time a player receives a royal card and places it face up in front of him, he must also take the top card from the penalty pile and also place it face up in front of him.The laid out royal animals are counted as one of their type. After-wards the top card on the penalty pile is turned face up once more.
