Play Online Fly Trap

Have you ever thought you could make fly trapping into a fun tabletop challenge? That’s exactly what Fly Trap does. With a deck of colorful cards featuring all kinds of buzzing bugs, you and your friends compete to lure the tastiest flies into your trap. There’s a cheeky satisfaction in watching everyone tiptoe around which card you’ll play next, knowing you’re all vying for the same juicy prizes.

Mechanically, it’s a neat mash-up of trick-taking and set collection. Each round you choose a card from your hand, then reveal together—highest value wins the trick and its pile of flies. But here’s the twist: sometimes you’ll want to throw a lower card to avoid a trick, especially if the flies you’d pick up are lousy for your sets. At the end of a few quick rounds you tally up your gathered flies, matching bugs to bonus sets and trying to dodge unwanted pest stories.

The whole thing wraps up in about twenty minutes, so it’s perfect as a warm-up before something heavier or as a light palate cleanser after a marathon gaming session. It’s easy to teach (“Here’s your hand, here’s how you play,”) but offers those little “aha” moments when you realize how to block someone else’s combo. Plus, the artwork on those bug cards is silly enough to spark a laugh without feeling cartoonish. In the end, Fly Trap is a breezy, social little game that catches everyone’s attention without overstaying its welcome.
