PLAYED FOR YOU

Bim Bamm!

Five hens are mine!

Uncover animals and count them! 16 double-sided tiles show animals, each of them looks a little bit different, but easily recognizable, and all show a characteristic color and background color; there are dogs, cats, pigs, donkeys and hens; one side of the tiles shows a white frame, the other a black frame. The action tile is snipped onto and decides the color of the frame showing on the tiles and you display them accordingly in a frame of 4x4 tiles. The cards for your hand are well shuffled and stacked face down, each player then draws a card from this stack and keeps it secret from the other players.

In your turn you can either turn over an animal tile or use the action tile. When it currently shows the white frame you can swap your card in hand with one from the stack; when it shows the black frame you swap your hand card face down with another player’s card. In both cases you turn over the action tile to its other side.

If you see five animals of that kind that is depicted on your card in hand you call BIM BAMM and put down the card for a victory point; should more players look for the same animal at the same time you win the card if you call BIM BAMM first! If you did win the card you draw a new one. If you make a mistake and call BIM BAMM in vain you lose one of your cards if you have already at least one card. If you could collect three cards you are the winner of the jolly animal count.
