"Simple to learn, fun to play"
4 stars"
Purchased on Mighty Ape

Coloretto was very simple to learn – by the time we had played two turns of our first game we understood the basic gameplay mechanics and also the strategy required to win.

However, winning requires a combination of the right colour cards appearing, and you being in a position to collect them, and forcing other players to collect cards they do not want to reduce their scores. This is where the replay value comes from – the game will never play out the same way twice.

It says 13+ on the box, but our 6 year old played it and was able to understand the rules and strategy with a minimum of guidance.

Recommended by all of us who played it.

"Quick set collection card game"
5 stars"
Purchased on Mighty Ape

Quick to play, easy to teach and learn, can play safe or push your luck and some player interaction by poisoning the pile another player may want. I use it as a fuller game when waiting for some one or a main game finishes early. Also a good intro/gateway game.

Description

Gameplay in Coloretto is simple: Either draw a card to play to a row or take a row of cards to add to your collection. A row can have at most three cards, so at some point, everyone is forced to take a row. Once all the rows have been claimed, players start a new round, drawing or taking once again.

What are you trying to do with these cards? Collect huge sets – but only in three colours as every colour beyond the third will cost you points. Jokers are highly-prized as they always match what you want, and +2 cards provide sure points, giving you a backup plan if everything goes south in terms of the colours you're collecting.

Once only a few cards remain in the deck, the round ends and everyone tallies their score, choosing three colours of cards to score positively while any other colours count against you. Each colour is scored using a triangular number system: the first card in a colour is ±1 point, the second card is ±2 points, and so on. The player with the high score wins!
