PiÑata Party

collect sweets in the meadow

Sweets have been beaten out of the Piñata at the birthday party and players want to collect them.

The board is assembled in any arrangement of your choice, albeit with the decorative chocolates edge at the outside, so that there are different flower arrangements for each game, then you put a sweet of the same color on each flower.

Two movement cards and a scoring card are revealed for the game, each player has a scoring frame. Players take turns and in your turn you have three actions. Actions 1 and Action 2 - Movement: You choose a sweet or a stack of sweets to be the active one and move sweet or stack on the board according to the current movement cards, you must use the same sweet or tower and use both movement cards, that is, you cannot repeat a movement. For each of the possible moves there are explicit rules and after your second move two sweets or two stacks of the same color must be adjacent. Action 3: You collect sweets from the board – at least two orthogonally adjacent sweets of the same color, one of them must have been moved previously in your Action 1 or Action 2. In a stack the top sweet is considered. If after removing a sweet from a stack a second pair of sweets appears and the stack was previously moved, you can take this pair or group, too, all sweets in a previously moved stack are deemed to be active. When all players have passed, you score collected sweets according to the valid scoring card and win with most points.

Nice, or – if you want – sweet, with a simplified rule for younger players, and a well-working combination of mandatory movement and options to collect.
