Safe and Hound társasjáték

Angol leírás

Safe and Hound is a game of 18 cards full of clever combinations for scoring and play for 1 or 2 players. Players arrange the cards in the shape of a triangle and each turn will rescue one of the cards from the triangle which represents the mountain. Each card features a skier in one of five colors, one of six trees, and one of three tools. The unused cards each game are used for the scoring area which affects both players.

In this game of Alpine rescue dogs, players will have to cleverly select a card each turn that helps their chances of winning or keeps their opponent from scoring. Additionally, the turn order changes depending on the time value of the card selected. Sometimes a player will want the higher time value as it has a color skier or tool they need, but doing so opens them up to going second on the following round if their opponent takes a lower time value. As each card is rescued from the mountain, the selection of cards shrinks. Taking certain cards opens up other cards which may help an opponent or it may hinder their path. Each choice of card presents a path down the mountain.

But which of the mountain rescue dogs will be the winner? Will it be the rookie, Beethoven and his slobbery jaws or will it be Barry, the veteran who has lead the team over many winters?

Safe and Hound is played over 3 rounds and presents over 800 different scoring combinations! Players will find plenty of fun in this small card game that packs a lot of strategy.
