PLAYED FOR YOU

 

Kokoriko

Grab the worm, get eggs

 

Players collect chicken in order to get as many eggs as possible. The worm is placed into the middle and you roll the die in turn. If you rolled Gray or Brown you take a chicken of this color from stock or - if none is available there - from another player you’re your choice; or you make your chicken of the color you rolled lay eggs; you take the corresponding number of eggs from stock. If you rolled Blue you take the cockerel; he doubles the number of eggs while you have him and can let your chicken lay eggs. When you roll the worm all players grab for the worm; if you snatch it you get an egg from each of your chicken. If you roll White you steal an egg from another player. When no eggs are left in stock you win with most eggs.

As always the rules lists versions: You can agree that all must shout Cock-a-doodle-doo when Blue is rolled and the first player to do so gets the cockerel. Or you can put the second pink tile on the die, representing the worm tail; if you roll pink you must grab the corresponding worm part or give back an egg. If you use the golden egg, it must be taken as the last from stock and then all white eggs are worth one point and the golden egg is worth three points; if you have the highest total of points you win.

As all other games in the Lego games range Kokoriko is simple, quickly explained and quickly played, and it is fun. As usual you are encouraged to invent your own rules and you can change the components and the dice according to those new rules with pieces from your own Lego stock. The variable die still is a wonderful stimulation for creative ideas!
