Eeek! There’s a moose loose in the kitchen... and another in the bathroom! In this silly matching card game, the goal is to keep moose out of your house, while at the same time giving them to your opponents. Use a door to close off empty rooms or if you’re lucky, plant a moose trap to keep those loveable but uninvited visitors away! The player with the fewest moose wins.

This game brings new meaning to the term “full house.” Just imagine what it would be like to have a herd of giant moose eating out of your refrigerator, sleeping in your bed, and bathing in your bathtub! The absurdity of the situation is enough to make you giggle, which is part of what this game is all about. Laughter is an important component of any group gathering, and There’s a Moose in the House is the perfect game to bring out for a round of light-hearted fun. Just be careful if you invite a moose over to play, as they hate to lose!
