Dweebies is a charming card game which teaches beginning strategy, planning, reasoning, and probability. Using a handful of colorful cards with different illustrated creatures, players take turns adding one card to the growing rows and columns on the table. If the Dweebies on either end of a row match, the player collects that set of cards. Each card contains a specific number of dots indicating the number of that type of Dweebie in the deck.
