How it plays
Push-your-luck with real friends and real grudges. A round runs about 2 minutes, and that's exactly enough time for chaos.
Start with one visible card each. Everyone sees where everyone stands. For now.
Stay or draw: count your coins. Push closer to nine, or lock in what you've got.
Chaos cards: boost yourself or sabotage friends. Nothing personal. Except it is.
Go over 9? You're out. Easy? Not quite. Your friends will sabotage your every move.
Try it yourself
That was you, alone. At the table it's five friends doing this to you on purpose.
First 100 backers only
The Okapi keychain is never for sale, not in the box, and gone after the first 100 spots. It goes free to the first 100 people who back the project on Kickstarter. Sign up here and you'll know the moment we launch, in time to pledge early and land inside that first 100.

The box is a backpack. Obviously.
Meet the farm
Every animal in Okapi Nine has one flaw they'd rather you didn't notice. You'll notice.
The rooster
Hasn't slept in years. Blames it on the skincare routine.
The cow
Sworn off dairy in public. Raids the fridge at 2am.
The hens
Fitness obsessed. Regret every single class.
The sheep
Knits her own hats. They are, without exception, hideous.
The cat, the dog, the rat
Can't stand each other by day. Inseparable at movie night.
The mice
Run an underground gambling den. The stakes are cheese.
We all hide our flaws. They're what make us unique. We're all a little okapi.
The story
Instead, he got lost in the worst possible place: a chaotic farm where nothing goes as planned. No money. No map. No idea what's going on. The only way out? Collect enough coins and survive the madness around him.
Reviews from the farm
"We bet the cheese. We lost the cheese. Same time tomorrow?"
"I stayed at eight once. Best decision of my life."
"They pushed me over nine, so I raided their fridge. We're even."

Who's making it
By day we design houses. This game is our exception: the one thing we made just because it made us laugh. Every illustration in Okapi Nine is hand-drawn, panel by panel. No AI, anywhere in the process.
Every illustration hand-drawn. No AI.2 to 6 players, 5 languages, 64 hand-drawn cards, and friends who will absolutely ruin your run. Follow the project or save your spot, ideally both.
The free print-and-play demo when it's ready, plus your shot at the first 100 keychains. Don't be backer 101.
