Shaun Das Schaf
Echt Schaf!
The swine have wrecked havoc upon Shaun’s collection of photos and Shaun needs help in picking up the photos. 60 cards picture the four sheep Shaun, Timmy’s Mama, Timmy and Shirley, with different background colors.
The cards are laid randomly face down. All players simultaneously use one hand – the other one must be held on your back – to pick one card at a time and decide, whether they want to keep it and place on their personal collection stack or if the put back the card face down on the table.
The cards can be added to your personal stack under the following condition: Two cards immediately following each other in the stack there must never be the same sheep or the same background color. It is important to note that you cannot pick up the cards in this stack again and you also must not look again at them, you must remember the last card well! When all cards have been taken um or if no player wants to pick up another card, the stacks are checked. You win, if you have the longest correct sequence of pictures in your personal stack.
When scoring a stack after a mistake you start counting at 1 again until you either reach the end of the stack or another mistake occurs. If you play several rounds you note the longest sequence for each player and after the number of rounds agreed upon has been played you win with the highest total of points.
Echt Shaun! is again a nice, fast and simple game offering unobtrusive training of concentration and memory. Speed is not everything it is better to have fewer cards in the stack but with a longer correct sequence!
