Safari Pals

Safari Pals is a range of card games that have similarities to both Top Trumps and traditional Playing Cards. Like traditional playing cards or Quartets (card game), the cards are arranged into sets of 4. Like Top Trump packs, each card describes a particular entity with numerical data. Safari Pals games are wildlife related so in this case each card describes a different animal and the sets are normally based a characteristic of the four animals in the set, such as Water-wings or Furry.

Two pack types have been published to date, a 52 card variant called Classic, and a 32 card variant called Junior. There are also Wildcard extension packs which add an additional 5 cards to a pack. The odd number of cards this creates, means a game can be played which is similar to Old Maid where the losing player is left with the odd card at the end of the game.
