Der Hobbit Das Kartenspiel

The journey to the Lonely Mountain has been portrayed with this trick-taking card game for teams; Bilbo, Thorin and Gandalf against Smaug and Bolg. Character cards and playing cards are specifically assigned and dealt as regards to number of players. Thorin is the starting player and plays one card, the other players play the same color, or, if they don’t have it, another color or purple for trump. The winner of the trick assigns cards to himself and other players according to the rules valid for his character. A round ends when the last card from hand has been played and the trick assigned. You cannot collect positive symbols for yourself, but can only use them instantly to balance bad symbols; both cards are then discarded, as are cards without such symbols. When there is no winning team after the first round, a second round is played. A character is out of the game when he holds two negative symbols.

Card game for 2-5 players, ages 10+
