The desert spadefoot toad has patience the rest of us can only dream of: it buries itself underground and simply waits — sometimes for years — until the rains finally arrive, then pops up to make the most of the puddles. EUGY's card version demands far less commitment: glue the numbered pieces in order and you're done before the kettle's cold.
