How it works (3 mechanics)
- [3]push_your_luck_escalation— “pack as many items as you can on top of a camel without breaking its back”
- [2]hand_management_under_draw— “light-hearted family card game; other players must be careful not to load the camel too close”
- [3]_other:shared_threshold_trap— “break the camel's back with the Straw card, you win instead of losing”
