Piranha Pedro

Party and Word Games

Piranha Pedro is a light, humorous board game from 2004, designed by Jens-Peter Schliemann, for two to six players, with sessions of about thirty minutes. The story is that poor Pedro is stuck on a sand bank in the middle of the Amazon, where hungry piranhas wait at every step. To keep his feet dry the players lay stones out in front of him, choosing their moves at the same moment, and whoever runs out of stones takes the risk that Pedro falls into the water. That brings a loud splash and leaves one player as the single loser while the others laugh. A comic-book style rules inset makes the game easy to learn. It has been issued by several publishers, among them Kanga Games and Goldsieber Spiele.
