Black stories Junior

ARE JOURNEY OF ADVENTURES AND PUZZLES

 

Black Stories are well-known, puzzling stories for which you can come with solutions using logic, creativity and imagination. In analogy to Black Stories there are Blue, Green, Yellow and Pink Stories for children and now also a board game.

The game features a board with a spinner and shows for color zones for the junior stories, there are 100 story cards, 100 action cards and 100 adventure chips.

The components are sorted by color and stacked next to the corresponding sides of the box bottom, and you should find the things listed in the rules, string, blanket, cotton wool or straws, all of which is needed for the action tasks.

You turn the spinner and must draw a story or an action card accordingly; sometimes one has a choice of story or action or two different story colors. In case of action you must act of best an an opponent or comply with conditions in order to receive the corresponding color chip. In case of story you turn head of expedition, read out the card and can give hints and answer questions of others. For correct solution a color chip is given to the player who solves the puzzle of the story. If you are first to collect one chip of each color, you win.

As in the stories themselves the fun and allure are in the tasks, but also with your team members, the more creative and with more imagination the act the greater the fun. The head of expedition is a central figure in the game; he can speed up or impede the solution with his hints and answers.

Black Stories junior offers condensed fun with very few rules and a lot of leeway, and the task using the sponge can be left out if you want!
