COllecting pictures in a different way

36 double-sided picture cards feature a red border on one side and a green border on the other side. Both sides of the picture show a dice symbol; the number of pips designates how many individual picture cards make up the complete image of which the card is a part. You can make up eleven different images from each border color.

All cards are randomly placed in the middle; the only pre-requisite is that there should be roughly half the cards showing a red border and half of the cards a green border.

In your turn you can form a complete combination, that is, one complete image, from cards displayed in the middle. Or you can turn over one card in the middle and use it and maybe other cards from the middle to complete an image; for this you can also use cards from your own display or from those of fellow players. Or you form a complete image using only cards from your own display and/or those of other players and at least one card from the middle.

If you find a complete combination you take the cards and assemble the image on the table in front of you; then you turn all the cards over: this results in a display of individual cards showing parts of other images. When all combinations have been formed you win with most cards in front of you. The game will not work out, that is, not all images can be completed, if someone forgets to turn over a complete image that he did collect.

In Year One after Dr. Hein as CEO of the company he is very much present, he did illustrate this game, which is a sophisticated placement and collecting game demanding sharp eyes and a good idea of what could fit where. Pure fun to play!
