Das Quiz der Erde

Facts and questions

Cards provide questions in seven categories – Unser Planet, Die Kontinente, Ozeane und Meere, Erdenbürger, Tiere und Pflanzen, Die Erde, die Umwelt und wir sowie Verblüffende Geschichten – for answers by the active player – SOLO – or the fastest player – CHANCE, and also provide three answer options and a page number for the book of solutions.

At the start, all players draw one card per category. In your turn, you take one of your cards, and announce if it is a SOLO or CHANCE card. In accordance with this, either only you yourself or the fastest player answers. Another player checks the answer. Is it correct, whatever player answered keeps the open-faced card in his “Jackpot” for points at the end of the game. If the answer is wrong, whoever answered draws a card from the same category and the used card goes into the “Trash Can”. When several players answer correctly, the card is not handed out, but also trashed. If there are several wrong answers, all players who gave a wrong answer draw a card of that category. If someone is out of cards, the game ends and all players add up the points for their Jackpot cards – 1 point for SOLO and 2 points for CHANCE cards; if then the player who was out of cards and ended the game also has most points, he wins immediately. Otherwise, he alone may answer all cards still face-down in front of a player of his choice, score points for correct answers; then score totals are compared again and the winner is whoever has most points.

A standard mechanism in amazingly beautiful implementation; the determination of the winner uses a new, unusual and very attractive mechanism.
