Dawak

DasAllesWissenAllesKönnen-Quiz

107 double-sided quiz cards pose questions or set tasks for which you need speed and knowledge to master them. For correct answers or solutions you receive the card; whoever owns seven cards first, wins. A Punch card is laid out, and 9 figurines in three sizes, shapes and colors are set out.

game master rolls the die and reads out the task of the corresponding color, all other players try to answer first. For knowledge questions – which are questions in lines 1 to 4 you need to hit the Punch card first to be allowed to answer. The questions come from different categories, e.g. „how many tentacles in an octopus?“ or “how do you write 19 in Roman numbers” or “spell the word Chromosome”, but can also be questions relating to the current group of players, e.g. “who is the oldest?” or “How many players are taller than 1.90 m?” or even “what is faster, a Golf GTI or a hunting falcon?”. When the first player answers incorrectly, the second one to hit the Punch card can answer, and so on. If nobody can solve, the card goes out of play. In any case the game master role passes to the next player.

The DAWAK cards set tasks which relate to the figurines, for instance „Whoever grabs most pieces with less than two eyes, gets the card“ or „whoever grabs most pieces with ears, gets the card“. For those DAWAK tasks nobody needs to hit the Punch card, all try immediately to resolve the task.

DAWAK is a party game featuring standard mechanisms that are cutely implemented and combined with an interesting and varied mix of more than 1000 questions all in all, the grabbing and spotting DAWAK tasks are a nice addition.
