Rabbids

Das Kartenspiel

 

Raving Rabbits are part of a series of games by Ubisoft based on their character mascot Rayman; the bunnies invaded Raymans world and took him prisoner, he must engage in crazy games for the rabbits.

In Rabbids Das Kartenspiel the Rabbids are on rampage, there are ten different ones and players must catch most of them in order to win the game.

Rabbids and scoring cards are shuffled together and stacked face-down. The starting player turns up the top card, visible for all at the same time, and puts it open-faced on the table.

A Rabbids card remains there open-faced and the next player turns up another card, and so on. If a scoring card turns up, all players simultaneously try to collect Rabbids cards from the table as fast as they can; you can only use one hand and only take one card at the time. Cards that you collected are laid out open-faced in front of you and cannot be taken by other players, but also not returned to middle. Which Rabbids you take is determined by the scoring card – a Rabbid with a number demands cards that depict exactly this number of Rabbids. When the card depicts a Rabbid without number you must find exactly this Rabbid again, and that’s the snag, some of those crazy animals are very, very similar. When nobody wants to take another card, all cards that were taken are checked; if one is not correct, you give all of them back; if all cards are correct you keep them for victory points. When the draw pile is empty you win with most cards.

A proven standard mechanisms for a topic well-liked by fans of those crazy bunnies and also for newcomers to the Genre of fast look-closely-and grab-quickly games.
