Coco Crazy GameThe Coco Crazy Game by Ravensburger is a hilarious family game in which the player's memory, perception and reaction are important. Six coconuts each contain six monkeys of identical color. Each player is trying to collect one bobble of each color. The game starts with the coconuts mixed on the board so that no one knows which one contains which color.

Since Coco Crazy rules state that the player who most resembles a monkey gets to start that player gets to peek at one coconut. On your turn, you roll a dice. Look sharp and remember the color of the monkeys in each coconut. Swap and switch the coconuts around. Guess what color monkey is in each coconut. For 2 to 8 players.
