Animals in Espionage is a quick game for two players in which each player is the director of their own spy agency. Each round, players attempt to discreetly recruit one of the six animal agents, while also trying to send a secret spy to their opponent. Players alternate rounds in which they split a hand of agents into two groups, and their opponent then chooses which group of agents they want to recruit first. After all the agents have been divided between the players, players simultaneously guess the agent their opponent was trying to secretly recruit throughout the game.

Players score points by carefully collecting their assigned recruit, sending their secret spy to their opponent, and correctly guessing their opponent's secret recruit. The player who scores the most points wins.
