A lighter, trade-free cousin of Bohnanza where you race to thirty points by collecting sets of colorful space beans. You keep two collections, one public and one hidden, and each turn you draw a bean, add it to a collection if it matches, then pass your whole hand to your neighbor. Complete a set matching a bean's number and cash it in for points.

Who it's for

Players who like Bohnanza's bean theme but want something faster and trade-free, and enjoy hidden information and hand-passing tension.

Not for you if…

You loved Bohnanza specifically for the trading, or want deeper strategy. The luck of the draw and pass can feel swingy to some.

Vibe's take

A breezy set-collector with a hand-passing hook, all about hiding your best beans and timing when to cash out.
