Grumpf
HUnt together, score separately
Grumpfs go hunting! You control all Grumpfs of a clan, and the clans must hunt together to comply with the conditions of a hunting ground. Six boards are on display as hunting grounds, all 48 animals are placed in the bag. Joker tiles are set out. Depending on the number of players, there are 1, 2 or 3 huts in the middle.
Each round is played the same way: Twelve animals are drawn from the bag and put on the corresponding board. Then, Grumpfs go hunting - you take all your clan tokens in hand, drop them on the table on a signal and can then turn or rotate your Grumpfs any way you want, but only using one hand, or place them on the track on a board, always on the first free case.
Grumpf with a club beat Grumpfs without club and must be placed on top of a Grumpf already on the spot. If someone has placed Grumps as he desires, he puts the Elder tile on a hut and calls “his color + Grumpf” - those Grumpfs can now no longer be beaten by a club. When all huts are occupied, the round ends and you check the meeting of conditions for each hunting ground by adding the values of all not-clubbed Grumpfs. When the condition is not met, all take back their Grumpfs, animals stay on the board. When the condition is met, animals on the board are distributed according to clan strength. After four rounds, you win with most points from sets of various animals-
Amusing, hectic chaos with tactic in the background, albeit badly hindered by hectic and club-yielders, strategy is absent, but a lot of fun is in deciding if you want to put all on one board or have a finger in every pie ahhh hunting ground or ...
