Game Description

Discover the fascinating simplicity of Coloretto, the renowned card game that has captivated thousands of enthusiasts since 2003. With immediate rules and surprising depth, Coloretto is perfect for those seeking a quick and stimulating gaming experience. The turn is simple: you can draw a card and add it to one of the available rows, or choose to take a row of cards for your collection. Each row can contain a maximum of three cards, ensuring a dynamic game pace and constant decisions for a light but effective strategy.

The objective in Coloretto is color management: collecting consistent sets, but with a fundamental twist. Only three colors will earn you positive points; each additional color in your collection will cost you valuable points at the end of the game. Jokers are extremely versatile cards, as they adapt to any color you are collecting, while +2 cards offer sure points, providing a lifeline if your color strategy doesn't go as planned. Every choice is crucial to optimize your score.

The game ends when few cards remain in the deck. At that point, all players count their points, carefully choosing the three colors to value positively, while the others will contribute negatively to the total. The scoring system is intuitive: the first card of a color is worth ±1 point, the second ±2, and so on (triangular system). The player with the highest score wins! Ideal for 2-5 players, with a duration of approximately 30 minutes, Coloretto is published by ABACUSSPIELE and guarantees fun and challenges in every game.

• Two-player variant: Some editions of Coloretto include a dedicated two-player variant, with slightly adapted rules for an optimal experience for two.
