Hossa!

London Town for „CApital“

Aim of the game is, to name and sing titles or lyrics of songs and thus collect the most points. The game comprises 110 cards in six languages, 88 cards feature cue words, 22 cards feature categories. One player chooses a card and names the cue word. Then all in turn name a song title containing the cue word or any word from the chosen category, starting left of the reader. If this player sings a song, all others can sing along with him.

All kinds of songs can be chosen, pop songs, country songs, church hymns, children songs as well as evergreen or the latest hits from the charts, and also songs in any language, provided at least one other player speaks this language, too. If a song has been named in a game, it may not be named again for the duration of this game.

Then points are scored – when the active player can name a title or a line from the lyrics, he scores one point. If he can start to sing a line of the lyrics he scores 2 points, if he can sing a complete verse or a longer part of the song this earns him four points. All players who can sing along with the active player score one point. Then the card goes to the next player for singing and scoring, until the card comes back to the starting player.

A fun game that works nicely in the family circle and works nicely too for huge groups, the rules state special rules for groups with up to 20 people and also a set of rules for groups up to 80 players.

This edition in a tin is the fourth edition of the game, deservedly, because Hossa is lots of fun! And if you sing „new York New York“ on the capital cue, you do NOT score at all!
