PLAYED FOR YOU

 

Nichtlustig

Noch mehr Labor Chaos

 

Aim of the game, in this sequel to Nichtlustig Labor Chaos is to get rid of all your cards on hand as fast as you can, too - but of course only if another card does not change that victory condition ….

7 cards are dealt to every player, in turn you choose a card and place it face-up until the card has been implemented. Some cards need requirements to be played. When the effects of a card have been implemented, the card is discarded unless the card text tells you differently. Basically, there are scientist/Wissenschaftler cards, Dinosaur cards and machine cards. Scientists cause changes in the number of cards in hand, usually they tell you to discard cards or draw cards. Dinosaur cards hand are usually action cards, influencing the course of the game, and machine cards always carry an "if" condition and provide the chaos mentioned in the title. Broth/Brühe cards are a new card type, they are never mentioned in the texts of other cards, but can fall under those texts, for instance when you need to guess face-down figures; in this case broth is simple broth, broth always being simply broth. Oh, and you have to be the active player in order to win by discarding your last card.

The sequel introduces new cards and can be combined with the prequel game, you can shuffle all cards together or compile your own favorite deck.

As in in the prequel the players decide how much fun they have with the game; you must like the texts, the humor and that you cannot make too many decisions - then you are fine with the chaos - and no, you cannot fetch some rings from your bedside table to meet the conditions of this card!
