Organ ATTACK is an educational medical card game where you try to remove all of your opponent’s organs before they remove yours. The last person that has at least one organ left wins the game. The Organ ATTACK card game was designed, developed and illustrated by The Awkward Yeti and is recommended for children 12 years and older and should be played with 2 – 5 players.
The game comes with 2 decks of cards. The organ deck has 20 cards that represent most major human organs, like stomach, bladder, tonsils, spleen, eyes, bowels, kidneys, liver, tongue, esophagus, gallbladder, brain, pancreas, teeth, thyroid, and lungs. Additionally there is a wild card. The attack card deck has afflictions that are used to attach an opponent’s organs, like pancreatitis, arrhythmia, thyroiditis, and even hot coffee.
Organ ATTACK raised $526,274 through a Kickstarter crowdfunding campaign. Organ Attack began raising funds on June 3, 2016 and made its fundraising goal of $12,000 in less than 24 hours on June 4, 2016. Stretch goals for every backer that pledged more than $20 included an expansion deck, nicer boxes, a sticker and poker cards with AwkwardYeti theme.

- Both organ and attack card decks and rulebook download for $16

- 2 copies of the game for $40
