Dobble
Description
Dobble is a quick and easy to learn, matching game with a twist. The game consists of 55 round cards in a nice tin box with each card showing 8 symbols out of a 57 collection. The very clever bit is that every card has only one symbol in common with every other card and your aim is to find it.
In each game of Dobble, 2 to 8 players act simultaneously to find matching symbols on two different cards. In principle, it seems pretty straightforward but, remember: there is only one matching symbol between two cards. In addition, all symbols on the cards are showed in different sizes and orientation making your hunt for a matching one quite complex.
Once a match found, players can shout it loud, collect a card and move on to find another match on a newly revealed card. Card after card, symbol after symbol players will find their way to achieve the victory. Dobble is great to keep all players engaged and if you are looking for more fun, you could alternate the five different type of games included in the box:
· The Tower: all players compete to collect more cards that anyone else by finding matches on a common pile of cards. Once a match found, players collect the card from the drawing deck and score one point.
· The Well: opposite to The Tower, all player compete to be the first to get rid of all their cards by finding matches on a common pile of cards. Once a match found, players discard their card to a central pile and they are one step closer to win.
· Hot Potato: similar to The Well, all players compete to get rid of as many of their cards as possible by matching symbols on their opponents cards. Once a match found, players could pass their card(s) to their opponent until only one of them has cards in their hand.
· The Poisoned Gift: in another twist of The Well, all players compete to have the lowest amount of cards by matching symbols on their opponents cards and a central pile. If you spot a match on your opponent card, they receive the card from the drawing deck and they are a step closer to lose.
· Triplet: similar to the Tower, all players compete to collect more cards that anyone else by finding matches on 3 out of nine cards. Cards could be collected only once 3 matching symbols are spotted.
