Spank the Monkey is a card game created by Peter Hansson, where you and your co-players are workers at a junk yard. A monkey have climbed the highest scrap pile, and it is your job to climb up and bring it down by spanking it. The goal of the game is to build a tower of the same hight as the monkey resides on.

The tower is built by playing Junk-cards, which has a height and a strength. The junk can be reinforced by playing reinforcement-cards. When you have reached the height of the monkey, you can try to spank it by rolling a die.

If you succeed, you win the game. It is easiest to spank the monkey if you are on the exact same level, but it is also possible to hit him if you are a little bit below or above him. You can also attack your co-players towers using attack-cards.

They can be one of throwing attack, hand attack and sneak attack. Throwing attacks can attack at any height. Hand attack can attack only at the same height as you are and sneak attacks is a catch-all for other types of attacks.

The co-player can defend himself using defense-cards. There are also special-cards which can affect the game in various ways. There is one expansion set, Monkey Buisness.
