You're a mean one, Mr. Grinch!
Ahead of the holiday season, Funko Games revealed two new tabletop games inspired by Dr. Seuss’ How the Grinch Stole Christmas.
First, the Dr. Seuss Merry Grinchmas Game is a cooperative title for 2-6 players with a recommended age of 5+. The game will challenge players to work together to collect presents for the Whos in Who-ville before the Grinch can steal them. The goal of the game is to collect more points than the Grinch by the time the Whos begin singing on Christmas morning.
The Dr. Seuss Merry Grinchmas Game will be available for $19.99. Each game has an expected play time of 30 minutes.
Next, the Dr. Seuss Grinch Grow Your Heart Card Game is for 3-6 players aged 6+. Players will take turns playing as both the Whos and the Grinch. Players will draw cards and will need to decide which Christmas items to keep, while the Grinch will steal cards to improve his own score. Players will need to collect sets of cards to earn points as the Grinch’s heart grows throughout the game.
The Dr. Seuss Grinch Grow Your Heart Card Game will be priced at $6.99. The game is expected to take 30 minutes to play.
Both of these holiday-themed games will be released later this year.
