Arschbombe
YOu SIT DOWN FOR THROWING RASCALS
Summer, sun and a dive into cool water! You make bathers in the shape of cards jump into a pool laid out with cards. The edge of the pool is used as a scoring track. You hold 3 springboard diver cards and 3 rascal cards and in your turn you first decide if you let a springboard diver jump or a rascal. Then you have to decide if the chosen jumper will execute a normal dive or a special dive. When the rascal shall jump your left neighbor chooses a bather in the pool who should be sprayed with water, meaning this card must to be hit by the diver. A springboard diver on the other hand must land in the pool without touching another card. For a normal jump you stand up, hold the card out at eye-level and let it fall. For a special jump you drop the springboard diver from an over-your-head level. The rascal is thrown into the pool while you are sitting down, you must keep your hand outside the pool. Depending on the position of the card and the method of diving you score points and move your marker on the pool’s edge. When a diver lands partly underneath another card you do not score points. Should the diver card end up partly underneath a pool edge card, you score negative points. A springboard diver only scores points if the card does not touch any other card and the more points the later he dives.
Yet another one of those funny little card games from Zoch, whose title makes you slightly lift an eyebrow, but which guarantee lots of fun. Just like real life – who has not been angered by those pranksters who hit the water bottom-first next to you! But making a game out of this! Hurrah!
