Details

In this game, the players look for lost toys: balls, cars, dolls, candlesticks, rings and also treasure chests. But beware: spiders are lurking and also little dragons (otherwise the title would be completely ridiculous of course). Personally, I even think this game is one of the best, whether or not the best, classic memory game that we have in our collection. As is known, the pictures are placed face down on the table in a grid of 7 x 7. When it is a player's turn, he turns over tiles and tries to find similar pictures. In this game there are some extras. In principle, you can keep turning over tiles until you hit a spider or the dragon, then your turn is over and you have to put the turned over tiles back blind. Some special rules: - if you turn a spin, your turn is immediately over, you turn the cards back over and can place the spin somewhere on an empty space (so they change place, you can drop this rule if you play with smaller children) . - Treasures and dragons do not go well together: if you have already turned over treasures (toys, rings or treasure chests) and you then turn a dragon, your turn ends and you have to turn all cards back over. - stop yourself: it is only when you stop yourself that you can start collecting tiles, but then some conditions have to be fulfilled. 1) Diamond rings and dragons may be picked up as single cards (so if you only turn over dragons, you can collect them). 2) The toys can only be picked up as a pair (like classic memory). 3) candlesticks may only be taken per group of three. 4) Treasure chests may only be taken in groups of four. You take all tiles that meet the conditions and turn the other tiles back over. By the way, the conditions are neatly on the tiles, with each print there are 1, 2, 3 or 4 white balls that indicate how many you have to collect to have a set. When there are only 3 cards on the table (the 3 spiders) the game stops. The player with the most dragons in his collection gets these spider tiles. The player with the most tiles in total wins the game. Duration: 15 min. Age: 6+ Nominated for "Kinderspiel des Jahres" 2004
