Schwarz Rot Gelb

Play on colors

Green for green? No? Red? Why? Because! In this game colors take on a different meaning. There are color cards showing the name of a color, but in written in another color and also repeated in different frequencies. For instance, a card shows the word “Schwarz” (Black), one time and written in green letters.

Each player draws one card, the rest is spread open-faced on the table. You draw as many cards as there are players from the face-down stack of point cards, these cards can be won in the current round. All play at the same time, you pick up a card and check if it fits into their sequence. A card fits into the sequence if it does not correspond to the previous card in any of the three criteria, the name of the color, the color the name is written in and the number of words must be different. For instance, the card mentioned above could be followed by a card showing three times the word yellow written in red. Cards that you cannot place are put back and are at everybody’s disposal. The first player to have made up a row of 7 - 11 cards, depending on the number of players, calls “Stopp” and the round is scored: All rows are checked, all cards following a wrong card and the wrong card are removed. Then players are awarded the point cards in decreasing value in  decreasing order of cards in their row. After five rounds the player with the highest score wins.

Schwarz Rot Gelb is a confusing game in the true sense of the word, especially as you are pressed for time. If is better to place fewer cards correctly than have a wrong card in a long row. If you like twisted thinking, this is a game for you!
