PLAYED FOR YOU

Klatsch-Memo

Jostling for a card or two

Memo, yes this is a memo game, but one that is quite different from all the other standard memo games. This game features 64 picture tiles, that is, 32 pairs of tiles, featuring images from the children‘s book „Schnabelgrün – Band 1 Das Schwein im Fass (Horngreen Volume I The Pig in the Barrel)“ and the aim of the game is that of a standard memo: You want to have most tiles at the end of the game. So you put all tiles face-down on the table, shuffle them and then you can start: The first player turns over one tile, leaves if face-up and the turn passes to the next player. All players in turn turn up one tile and leave it like that. Should there be the same picture visible on two tiles all players can clap their hands quickly onto those two tiles.

If you are the only one to touch a tile or if your hand is lowest in the stack you take the tile. When hands are not on top of each other, but next to each other on a tile you get the tile if your hand covers the bigger part of the tile. Would you like to get both tiles, you must use both hands to touch one tile each, even when both tiles sit next to each other. When two children touch one tile each of the pair, each child takes “his” card, if you are quickest for both tiles you take both of them. When all tiles have been collected you win with most tiles.

Should you prefer to have a somewhat quieter game you can of course play a conventional memo game.

What a pretty idea that also picks up the mechanism of Schnipp Schnapp; you must remember what has been uncovered and where it lies – memo and reaction training with beautiful components, the drawings are enchanting!
