Gloobz

Triangular and yellow

Gloobz are little one-eyed beings, depicted on 56 Gloobz cards that show Gloobz in different colors and shapes. Gloobz figures come in white color and in shapes of triangle, circle and square, and there are also three color pot pieces in blue, yellow and red. Megagloobz is a special colored Gloobz for which there is a separate figurine. All figures are placed in a circle and all cards are stacked.

You turn over a card. If you call “more Gloobz” when doing it, you grab figure and color pot that are depicted most often on the card. If you call “less Gloobz” you grab for the figure and color pot that are depicted the least or not at all. In case of a tie all colors and figures involved in the tie are valid. If you touch a figure you must take it. When Megagloobz appears on a card, you only need to take this figure. In case of a magnifying glass appearing you must grab as many figures as you can. Remember: In case of ties you need to grab all figures involved. For each piece that you took and that is correct you advance one step, for each wrongly taken piece you lose a point.

In the “More” variant there is no announcement, you always grab figure and pot according to the majority on the card. In analogy you always grab the color and figure with the least frequency in case of the “Less” variant being played. The rules for Megagloobz and magnifying glass apply for both variants. When playing with younger children you can remove Megagloobz and magnifying glass cards or only play either with forms or colors.

An absolutely nice family game that trains reaction speed, pattern recognition and allocation of shapes, all with a lot of fun.
