Manymals Zoo Edition

Tierpark Hellabrunn

 

Manimals / Manymals is a game on animal characteristics. Cards show an animal on one side and symbols for characteristics and habitats on the other side, one of those symbols is a big one within a magnifying glass symbol. Approx. 40 cards are spread out animal side up. One card is turned over for a search card; the big symbol on the back is the current characteristic. You search with one hand, suitable cards are collected in your other hand, and you must keep cards that you took. If no one takes cards any more, the cards in hand are checked - the big symbol of the search card must be among the small symbols on the backside of the taken cards. For each wrong card you must also set aside one correct one. The player with the most cards receives two cards for victory points, the player with the second receives one card. All other cards are put back on the table, animal side up, and three cards are added from the stack. After 7 rounds the player with most cards wins.

There are other editions using these mechanisms - for habitats like Europe or other zoos like Leipzig or Stuttgarter Wilhelma.

The rules also contain variants - in a game with younger children players don’t search simultaneously, but take one card in turn. In the Family version adults give back three correct cards before scoring. In the letter version, the bold letter in the animal name is searched for. There is also a handicap version for players with varying player strength. Lots of information and lots of fun with a topic of interest for all ages, in minimalistic packing and featuring fantastic graphics and simple rules.
