Help save endangered sea turtles around the world? Too Many Turtles is a tactical point builder card game in which two players fight over the course of up to 3 rounds to build the most valuable army of turtles that they are able to gather. The player with the highest amount of points at the end of the round wins and the game goes to the first player to win 2 out of 3 rounds. In our base set, you will find two pre-built decks of cards made to play against each other. On one side, you have Turtron: The Legendary Defender, a giant robotic turtle from outer space that has come to earth. He and his army of hatchlings are trying to combat the devastating effects mankind is having on turtles and the environment using a variety of effect cards like Shell Restoration and Environmental Clean Up.
Now a little info about real world turtle issues. In addition to being our nonprofit partner, SEE Turtles is doing some truly amazing work to help protect and restore sea turtle populations in Latin America. Brad Nahill, co-founder and President, has been overseeing SEE Turtles programs since 2008, when the organization was founded. In addition to errant fishing policies, the turtle shell trade has come into the spotlight of issues that SEE Turtles is aiming to increase awareness. Turtles are often hunted in rural and undeveloped areas as a source of food, with their shells and other bones being used to make tools or jewelry. The turtle shell trade is still a very prominent market in Central and South America, as well as much of Asia.

From the guys who played Cards Against Humanity and Exploding Kittens comes a new game, starring some of the slowest animals on the planet; but things get moving pretty quickly! Players will take turns playing turtles and moving them across the field as quickly as possible, dodging all of the wild effects that their opponent can throw at them. Sometimes the effects are very real, like discarded Plastic or Debilitating Pollution, sometimes they’re as sudden as Shell Death!
The Impact: Luckily for all of you amazing people reading this, the three of us aren’t quite smart enough to believe we can’t change the world. With your help though, we might be smart enough to pull it off! We chose SEE Turtles as our Non-Profit Partner because they work around the world to defend turtle hatchlings from danger so they can thrive. We need to take action before Sea Turtles go extinct. So, for every pack we sell, we pledge to save (at least) 50 hatchlings with the help of SEE Turtles. Once we realized the danger posed to turtle populations worldwide by human activity, we realized it was our responsibility to do something to help. We believe a game can change the world and we’re going to prove it! Explore a few extra details at https://www.treiamicigames.com/.
