We have been playing lots of card games on playingcards.io, especially The
Crew. LAMA would be super easy to whip up if people wanted.
Since these games are new-ish, outside of something like Tabletop Simulator
and/or Tabletopia, I dont think you will find these on any of the "regular"
online game sites like BGA, yucata, boiteajeux, etc.
