Asmodee and ITV partner on new I’m a Celeb jungle game

Published on: 26th October 2022

Based upon I’m A Celebrity…, Jungle Hat Dunny Star Hammock is based on Taco Cat Goat Cheese Pizza and tasks players with completing ‘trials’.

Jungle Hat Dunny Star HammockCombining two of the nation’s great loves – game playing and TV’s toughest entertainment show, I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here! – Asmodee has introduced Jungle Hat Dunny Star Hammock.

A simple, no fuss and easy-to-play card game, Jungle Hat Dunny Star Hammock is inspired by the ever popular Taco Cat Goat Cheese Pizza, which fans have described as ‘filled to the brim with hand-slapping mayhem’. In this new version, players have to keep these five jungle related words in mind as they try to get rid of all their cards. As soon as there is a match between a card and a spoken word, they must race against each other to slap their hand on the central pile of cards. The last one to do so must pick up all the cards and therefore risks losing the game.

As well as watching the cards, players have trials (or actions) to complete. If they spot the crocodile card, they must snap their arms together like a crocodile’s jaw, while spotting a grub means moving their hands up to their mouth and wiggling their fingers, like a hungry grub. If they spot the spider, meanwhile, the player must cover their mouth with both hands and gasp.

William van Rest, director of Gaming, Live & Merchandising at ITV, said: “We are delighted to be working with Asmodee on the I’m a Celebrity… version of its much loved game Taco, Cat, Goat, Cheese, Pizza. The jungle spin on the game adds real fun for all the family, who we hope will sit down to play it together after watching this year’s series of I’m a Celebrity…Get me Out of Here!”

This game is suitable for 2-8 players aged eight and over, with each rapid, addictive round taking just 10 minutes.
