For the average family, life has looked a little different during 2020 and this was what inspired one family to create the Surviving Quarantine card game. This humorous pandemic-themed card game developed by a family of six is described as a "play on the madness of the pandemic" and it challenges players to survive.
The game captures some of the unusual moments that came out of the last few months, such as people hoarding essential household supplies or going to strange lengths to protect themselves. The card deck includes both vaccine and virus cards and Surviving Quarantine is described as "a genetically modified Old Maid crossed with an ill version of Uno." With the game, players can choose the fast and easy Battle Mode or engage with the Fun Friendly Mode.
