Once again, we are more or less crazy inventors and are tasked with making the most crazy and most appreciated inventions.
For this we use item cards and attribute cards for the inventions and point chips for voting to show cards and, finally, voting cards to indicate what you think of your competitors' inventions!
Every player draws three item cards and three attribute cards - you also fill up your hand to this number of cards at the start of a round - and can then, but only once in the game, discard all your cards and draw a new set. Then you make an invention by selecting any number of cards from your hand and laying them out face-down.
Then each player in turn presents his invention as creatively, persuasively and effectively as possible and displays the card used for it. Other players can make comments, but cannot interrupt or disturb a presentation. Texts on cards can be used or ignored, as you like!
When all inventions of the round have been presented one player counts down from three and you point at the player whose invention you like well enough to buy. And of course you can never point at yourself because your inflatable, perforated vegetables sell themselves without support! Each player who has a finger pointed at himself gets a chip as does the player who was selected most often. Depending on the number of players you play between four and seven rounds and win with most point chips.
The cards themselves are not important, you only need to sell your invention convincingly, because naturally all have been waiting a long time already for de pedal-driven ecological butler!
