PLAYED FOR YOU

Das kleine Ich bin ich

Würfelpuzzle

Dice Puzzles are among the most used game mechanics used in games for toddlers: An image is split into six parts and each part is marked with dice pips from a standard D6 die. Even when children can’t count yet, they can play by comparing the die result to the die images on the puzzle parts. In your turn you roll and take the puzzle part marked with the die result, if it is still available, and add it to the puzzle. If you are first to complete your picture, you win.

This basic mechanism has been varied a few times, one of the most sophisticated ones has been provided with this game, based on the book „Das kleine Ich bin ich“ by Mira Lobe. Each of the four puzzles has nine parts, which are marked on the back with Frog, Hippo, Dog and Das kleine Ich instead of dice pips. All parts of a puzzle are stacked face-down in random order.

You roll the die: Das kleine Ich bin ich is a joker; you take the top puzzle part in the stack and either place if before you or add it to the puzzle, if possible. If you roll Dog, Frog or Hippo you compare the symbol on the die with the symbol on the back of the top puzzle part. When both symbols are identical you can turn over the part and add it to the puzzle or lay it down. When the symbols are different your turn ends. When you roll the Moon your turn ends immediately and passes to the next player. If you are first to complete your puzzle you win.

As the other games in this series by Selecta this one, too, is a reverence for the book and impresses by the enchanting illustrations; the characters from the book serving as dice symbols intensify the fun to play!
