comparing parrots
Colorful parrots have different colors for their body parts, tail, wings, breast + head and peak.
Players hold number cards in hand, 48 parrot cards are dealt evenly to all players, who stack them face-down. Two players are chosen to reveal their top card, on a command, and place them to the left and right of the target card. Then all players by themselves count the number of parrot parts of the same color on both cards and place their corresponding card on the target car as quickly as possible. Attention! You count the number of body part types that have the same color, not the number of the body parts. Two parrots, both featuring red peaks and yellow tails, therefore give a result of TWO! Then all players together determine the correct result and check the stack. The bottom-most card with the correct number wins the Round. In case of two players, the winner takes one of the cards. In case of 3 and 4 players, the winner and the one in second place take one card each. The winner(s) of the round reveal a new card for the next round, etc.
In case of younger players, the two youngest ones use the one-sided number cards! In the version Weiter Flug for players of ages 6+, you do not put the parrots on the target card, but leave them openly on your own stack.
In a variant for players, ages 4+, players compare their card in turn with a card in the middle, display the number and then the player with the highest number of the round can discard a card, you win if you are out of cards first.
Again, a typical Adlung game; fast, pretty, with simple rules and nicely integrated learning content, in this case counting and spotting of differences.
