Länder der Welt

Red-white-green - italy or hungary?

51 country cards name the country, show its flag and its corresponding number on the summary board, name the capital and show the geographic position of the country by a number that is repeated on the map of the world featured on the big board. Each player is given a summery board showing country flags and their numbers.

The left neighbor of the active player gives the clues - if the pawn of the active player sits on a slot showing a symbol for flag, capital or geographical position, the corresponding clue is named first. On cases with a dice symbol, the die is rolled - it shows the three symbols with different numbers; the clue numbered #1 is given first. If the slot shows two faces, the left neighbor decides which clue he gives first. If you guess the country correctly after maximum three clues, you move 3-2-1 slots for 1-2-3 clues needed. I If someone moves again on or over the starting slot, you win at the end of the round if you are furthest ahead.

f your guess is wrong, you do not advance your pawn and are given a joker card. If you collected two joker cards, you must discard them and are given a country that was already played to be guessed again; the card is drawn from the discard pile.

The game features a colorful selection of games, some of them will be a challenge for players ages eight. To recognize Madagascar from its flag would be an amazing feat that has more than earned the three points score! The repeat joker is a very good idea and the instructional effect of the game is vey high, as is the fun to play. The game is more a family game, but can work for elder children playing alone, too.
