FroGames — Moments You'll Remember
Secret agent, Joe Cool, WWI flying ace, detective. Today at the table, it only matters who collects the right Snoopy faces before anyone else.
What it's about
All the faces of the world's most famous beagle, in a hand of cards
In Peanuts: Many Faces of Snoopy, each player collects cards featuring Snoopy's many personalities — plus his family and friends from Charles M. Schulz's comics — to build the winning combination. It's a competitive card game, light and immediate: it's explained like Rummy and played from the first turn.
The stroke of genius is the Popularity Board: at the beginning of each game, the value of each personality is randomly determined. What's worth gold today might be worthless tomorrow — and vice versa. To find the right cards, you have to dig through the deck and the discard pile, because as they say: one dog's trash is another's treasure.
Quick points now or a bigger hand later? A five-card run of the same personality or a six-card set with equal values across different personalities? Many Faces of Snoopy is all about this: simple choices, constant tension, and games that last as long as a coffee break.
Each Snoopy is a character in their own right: the secret agent, Joe Cool, the WWI ace. You just have to figure out which one matters most today.
The secret of Many Faces of Snoopy in one sentence
Your discards are someone else's treasure. You dig through the deck, argue over discards, and laugh. Then someone closes and you play again immediately.

What happens at the table
Not the rules. The experience.
The board decides who matters today
The Popularity Board is flipped, and values change. Today, the WWI Flying Ace is worth gold, while Joe Cool is worthless. Everyone scrutinizes the rankings and redraws their plan before even drawing the first card.
The hunt begins
You draw, you rummage through the discard pile, you keep an eye on what others discard. That card you threw away two turns ago? Now your neighbor wants it. One dog's trash is another's treasure.
Set or run?
Five cards in a run of the same personality, or six cards in a set with equal values across different personalities. Every hand is a crossroads: do you pursue the easy combination or the one worth more?
Score now or risk it?
You have a hand that can score some points now. Or you wait, build something bigger, and pray no one else scores first. This is the moment where the game is won or lost.
Someone plays the winning hand
A player closes with the right combination at the right time. The table protests, laughs, counts points. And as the deck is shuffled, someone is already demanding a rematch.
How to play
The flow of each turn
Four simple actions that repeat. You learn in five minutes, you play from the first turn.
At the start of the game, the Popularity Board randomly assigns a value to each personality. This ranking dictates what's worth collecting today.
On your turn, draw a card from the deck or reclaim one from the discard pile. Each choice tells others something about what you're looking for.
Action cards let you dig through the deck and discards, disrupt opponents' plans, and speed towards the hand you need.
When you have a five-card run or a six-card set, you lay it down and score points. The first to reach the target wins the game.
Why it works
Six things that make it special
The many faces of Snoopy
Secret Agent, Joe Cool, WWI Flying Ace, Writer: each personality is a card to collect. A tribute to sixty years of Peanuts.
Different values each game
The Popularity Board shuffles the value of personalities at the start of the game. The same card is valuable today and useless tomorrow.
One dog's trash...
Dig through the deck and rummage through discards. What you throw away becomes another opponent's fortune—and vice versa. Continuous interaction without conflict.
Set or run: two paths
Five cards of the same personality or six with equal values. Two ways to close mean two different plans in each hand.
Twenty minutes, 3 to 6 players
It's taught in a flash and finishes quickly. Large tables, many hands, immediate desire to replay. The perfect filler.
Official Peanuts license
Published by Cryptozoic with a Peanuts license and classic Charles M. Schulz artwork. Snoopy, Charlie Brown, Lucy, Woodstock at the table.
How to win
One goal, two ways to get there
It's not enough to be lucky: you have to decide when to play it safe and when to take a risk. It's this dilemma that keeps everyone glued to the table until the last card.
The objective
- Build the best hand with the highest-value personalities of the game
- Lay down five-card runs or six-card sets to score points
- The first to reach the score target wins
The dilemma
- Quick points now with a safe, but small, hand
- Or wait and build something bigger and more profitable
- The longer you wait, the more you risk someone else closing before you
Many Faces of Snoopy is the filler you put on the table to warm up the evening—and then replay three times. Easy to learn, hard to put down.
Frequently Asked Questions
FAQ about Many Faces of Snoopy
Is it just a themed game or is there real gameplay underneath?
There's real gameplay. The values that change each game force you to adapt your strategy, the choice between set and run is a real crossroads, and the tension between closing early or waiting for more points keeps your mind sharp. It remains a light filler, but with decisions that truly matter.
Is it worth it if I'm not a Peanuts fan?
Yes. At its core, it's a solid set collection game in the Rummy style, fast-paced and suitable for many players: it works even without any emotional connection to Snoopy. The Peanuts license and Schulz's drawings are the icing on the cake that make it warm and recognizable, not the only reason to play it.
How long does a game actually last?
Around 20 minutes, often even less once you get the hang of it. It's designed as a filler: you open it between longer games, or to end the evening. And it's almost always "just one more."
Is it good for playing with kids?
Yes, the recommended age is 8+. The rules are as simple as Rummy's, and the Snoopy theme makes it appealing to younger players. It's a great family game, to play with adults and kids without excessive imbalance.
With how many players does it work best?
It plays with 3 to 6 players. With more players, the discard pile becomes richer and more chaotic, and the "steal what you discard" interaction intensifies. With three, it's more controlled and tactical; with five or six, it's pure social fun.
Is it available in Italian?
This is the English edition. The rules are brief and very visual—the cards are based on colors, values, and personalities—so you don't need to know English to play, but please note that the text and rulebook are in English.
