It boils down a simultaneous action selection game (say, Libertalia) to its core consideration: based on the gameplay information I know, and based on what I know about the other players, which card will they choose to play? I said Get Bit is a good ice breaker game and what better way to get the drinks flowing and everybody acting silly than to turn it into a drinking game. In Get Bit you want to escape the shark fastest, and what slows down a shark more than eating your fellow players?

Escaping requires the players to swim as far away from the shark as possible, whilst their fellow robots are steadily consumed. It is these plastic components, that while not absolutely necessary to play the actual game, make the whole experience so much more fun and thematic.When only two players remain in the game, then whichever player manages to get out in front survives the shark attack and becomes the winner, whilst the other player character becomes shark food. Winning and losing–yes, I suppose they matter; that’s why we’re playing games and not skipping rocks. One card, one final bite, the shark eats the slowest swimmer whole, regardless of how many limbs they have left!

The goal of Get Bit is to be the last surviving member of your friendship group after you are ambushed whilst out for a casual swim. A player is eliminated when all four of his or her robot’s limbs are removed, and the game continues until all players but two have been eliminated. Make sure you choose wisely because once cards have been played, you and your friends will have to look on in horror as the shark mercilessly chomps a limb off of the trailing swimmer.

Get Bit also has a number of small expansions - one of which lets one player take the role of the shark! The reason is that while played cards stay in front of players, a player gets all played cards back to use again if either they are bit or they have only one card in hand.

We publish our Merkle proof, Proof of Reserves, and platform reserve ratio on a monthly basis to ensure maximum transparency. Play card to begin a round, each player selects a card from his hand and places it face down on the table. Get Bit is played in rounds, which are divided into a three simple steps: play cards, move swimmers, and get bit! You are getting a bonus orange robot and all the cards needed to play the game with this extra player. If a player who has not been bit during the game lags in this last moment, it seems unfair for the other player to win the game for little work.That robot is placed farthest from the shark, its controlling player takes all played cards back into hand, and the game continues.
