Volle Scholle

Is there enough room for all penguins?

You want to collect the largest colony of penguins with points from penguin cards and from floe cards. Each player is dealt 12 of the 72 penguin cards, the rest is draw pile, the card „Melting Floe“ is shuffled into the decks as stated; the top floe card is turned up. The first player lays out a penguin card; all others must top this with one or more cards of the same color and a higher total value, or pass. If the turn comes back to you must pass or raise the bid by supplementing your bid accordingly. When all players but one have passed, he gets the floe card and all players draw the number of cards they played, up to a maximum of two. If you get the floe, you discard the used penguin cards. The others can decide whether to keep the used cards and place them face down as their penguin stack or to discard them. You cannot look again at won floe cards or stacked penguin cards. The penguins you stack must be placed on floe cards at the end of the game or you score minus points. When the “Melting Floe” card appears, the game ends instantly. Each player sums his penguin points and his floe points. Then you deduct the penguin points from the floe points: When the result is 0, you score the penguin points; if the result is positive, you also score the penguin points. When the result is negative, you double the difference and deduct it from you penguin points, the result is your score.

You win with the highest score.

Volle Scholle is a fun, fast, well-made family game, which needs good management of cards and a good memory, because each surplus penguin point costs you 2 points from your score.
