Das kleine Ich bin ich

Memospiel

The memo game tells the story of Das kleine Ich bin ich – The little I is me! The game comprises 16 book-page cards featuring scenes from the picture book of the same name as well as one, two or three small images, each in a frame. On the back of those book-page cards the scenes are described with one sentence only. Corresponding to the small framed images on the book-page cards there are 42 memory tiles. Those tiles are laid out in a loose grid; the book-page cards are sorted by numbers and stacked face-down, card #1 on top and #16 at the bottom. You turn up the first book-page card and turn up a tile. If the image on the tile fits the book-page card and the card shows only one framed image, you get this tile, turn over the next book-page card and may turn up another tile. When the book-page card features two framed images, the first tile remain in the grid, face up, and you have another turn. If you find another image corresponding to the page card you take both tiles in case of two images, turn over another book-page and have another turn. For three images on the book-page card you act accordingly, image #1 and #2 remain in the grid and you take all three tiles when you find the 3^rd one. Whenever you turn up a tile with an image that is not depicted on the current book-page card you turn the tile back over again and your turn ends. When all book-page cards have been played, you win with most tiles.

This memo version offers not only an attractive variant for the standard memo mechanism, but tells the enchanting story of “The little is me!” shortly and concisely, you can tell the story to players during the game.
