Themed on adventuring pigs in a medieval tavern, BARPIG combines uncanny levels of wit and humour with novel game mechanics that continuously engage all players throughout the game. All this in a unique, highly portable, and wizardly fun game.

Inspired from games like Munchkin, Exploding Kittens, and Ring of Fire, BARPIG joins these greats as the pig-fect way to liven up any party.

Easy to learn, fun to play, it’s the perfect party game for anywhere, with anyone, at anytime.

…Oh, and there will be Pigs!

Sounds amazing! How is it played?

Players take turns based on a dice roll, highest roll moves up one level closer to the winning level 5, whereafter they challenge their fellow players to a hilarious group activity described on the character card they currently hold. These characters change during a game, and ask players to adapt the challenge with their own creativity and abilities, meaning no two rounds will ever be the same.

Losing a challenge will not only cost you precious drinks on your bar tab, but also impact your character’s sobriety. Lose too many “Sober points” and your character might find themselves ‘blacking out’, sending you back towards level 1! No player is ever eliminated, however, meaning it’s anyone’s game until the fat piggy sings.

Help is at hand however, in form of fun and wacky items. ‘Bought’ using that same bar tab and hence drink points, these have a multitude of effects like changing the group challenge, stealing the winning dice roll, deflecting damage points, or even effecting other items.

Designed for groups of 3 to 7 players, each version of BARPIG features around 10 characters, each with their own unique challenge, as well as between 12 and 14 different deliciously vindictive item cards to back-stab your friends with in this fight for supremacy.

We mentioned there’d be pigs, right?

Wait? Each version? There’s more?

That’s right! We’ve been around long enough, and I guess we’re just that crazy, to have published 3 versions of BARPIG. 

BARPIG – The Adventure Party Game, or as we call it “Original BARPIG” is where it all started back in 2017. Sporting 10 Character cards with their unique challenges, and a nice mash up of 12 unique item card types, this is the ideal starter pack for anyone wanting to dip their toe in this mud-pool of fun.

Apparently that wasn’t enough….

BARPIG: After Hours was born in 2019 out of demands from our fan base to come up with an expansion. We went one step further, and designed “After Hours” to be both a standalone as well as a expandable addition to Original BARPIG. And we decided to the dark side of pork with this edition. 

“However, not everyone is allowed in the illustrious BARPIG tavern, and some aren’t too happy about it. So when the good pigs are away, the bad pigs break in to play.”

BARPIG: After Hours features a further 11 brand new characters with new unique challenges, as well as 9 more new deliciously vindictive item types, adding 5 of our favourite items from the previous version, in this new fight for piggy supremacy. 

And just when we thought we were done, our fan base loved what we brought them, but wanted more, and to be honest so did we…

BARPIG – The Great Festival came into the world in 2021, this time initially only as an expansion that can be combined with either or both the previous base games (Original and After Hours).

The Great Festival was also an amazing chance for us to dig into our bin of good ideas that didn’t quite make the cut in the previous games, and using what we’d learned over the years, and made a collection of 9 more seriously fun Character challenges, and another whopping 14 brand new item types to really mix things up.

Thematically The Great Festival is a celebration, one that puts every player and what makes them special center-stage in this final installment of the BARPIG family.

“Legend tells of an adventurous piggy, who explored the far reaches of the realm before settling down to build a tavern deep in the woods: A place where all adventuring pigs could meet kindred spirits and share tales from afar. Since then, whenever the harvest moon falls upon the equinox, everyone in the realm is invited to The Great Festival to celebrate why we explore and share what we’ve found.“

And indeed, once again, BARPIG is fully modular. This means any pack of BARPIG can be combined and deck-built with any other, however you wish
