Game History:
In the game there are four different card types:
Family
Profession
Assets
Adventure
The cards are sorted according to their nature and then mixed for each batch to be placed in the middle of the table.
Each player draws 5 cards from these piles. What color is it chooses up to himself, but should pay attention to a balanced mix. So it makes sense first to draw a card of any color.
On the cards various life events are recorded depending on the category, bringing different points that the player. Now you try to make his life so that it has earned the most points at game end.
In each round you play a card. Basically, one may create any card from his hand to his lifeline. Some cards require but sending you another card that must have been played out before. For example, you can only play as a professional health care provider if you have previously done a diploma. One can only act as a home improvement if you have previously built a house and to celebrate silver wedding anniversary, you have to be married only once.
As in real life, you need only a passport and must be married only once.
Ideally, they say to each card, one uses his lifeline a little story.
After you play a card, you accuses of one of the stacks by one card and fills his hand cards thus back to 5 cards.
Interaction gets the game through cards with which you can "steal" already played his cards other players. Whether you win and a process and demands accordingly a card, or if the pets were confused at the vet, hardly a card is secure, even houses can be exchanged.
The game ends when have passed 60 years during the game, so 6 time marker cards à 10 years were uncovered.
Who now are the most points in his display, wins the game.
Our impression:
"Game of Life Adventure" is a fast Karnspiel snack. The creation of the card makes it particularly fun to children, which is to think always great stories.
I find it interesting to note that the children play here for her classic role stereotype. While in the game is important for Torben to have a great professional (and to obtain a corresponding number of points for it), Finja draws with above-average frequency of family tickets to get children. Fortune and adventure pull both equally often. This phenomenon I have observed even with friends who have played with our children the game. So it seems to be different boys and girls strategies in this game. To exit the game, it is also completely irrelevant from which stack the cards are drawn, can be found in all stacks alike cards with particularly high as well with very low values.
The action cards, with which you can steal other players cards, regularly provide the bustle at the table. Just played a great card, you must also give it again. It says Clenching Teeth, hoping for a fitting revenge card. To compensate for the player but gets the action card, which nevertheless still has a value of 5 points. Given a 50-card that you had to give up however, this is only small consolation.
However, I find the cards well, because you can add variety to the game like this and not any stores more or less just for the tickets.
The game can also play very well for two, so it will pick the children again and again out of the closet and together gamble a fast lap.
Plus points of the game:
Faster gameplay, so good for in between
Great value for money
Great illustrations on the cards
Minus points of the game:
The guidance is not always clear (eg What happens with a map that I receive through an action of other players, for which I would need to lay out but another card -. I can still play it, yes or no?)
Overall, we recommend the game with 4/5 stars on!
