PLAYED FOR YOU

 

Visual Panic

Pink guitar on White - no!

 

54 cards showing objects and words, depicted in colors of a colored, black or white background, are stacked. You name a color from the backside of the top card and then turn the card over quickly for all to see simultaneously. All players now search by themselves for objects and words in the color you named. If you believe that you have found them all and have memorized them all you cover the card with your hand and start listing objects and words. But there is a snag: You must ignore all words or objects in the given color that are outlined/framed in black or white or depicted on a black or white background. If you are correct you keep the card. If you make a mistake, you give the card to another player of your choice. When a chameleon appears on a card, you must cover the card and call "Panic", adhering to the black & white rule for the chameleon, too - if a chameleon appears outlined in black or white or on a black or white background, you ignore it and deal with the card according to the color named before the card was revealed. If you handled a chameleon correctly, you get the card and two from other player(s) of your choice. If those players don't have enough cards you take them from the pile. If you were in error, you give the card and two from your hand to any player of your choice. When the draw pile is empty, you win with most cards.

Simple, fast and good fun! Yet another small excellent game from Cocktail Games, well-working with all numbers of players, based on quickly explained rules and with words chosen that do not demand knowledge of French to play! Pure fun demanding quick memorizing and fast reactions!
