PRODUCT DESCRIPTION 
 Every picture tells a story - but what story will your picture tell? Dixit is the lovingly illustrated game of creative guesswork, where your imagination unlocks the tale. In this award-winning board game, players will use the beautiful imagery on their cards to bluff their opponents and guess which image matches the story. Guessing right is only half the battle - to really succeed, you'll have to get your friends to decide that your card tells the story! Every turn, the storyteller will call out a short phrase or word to match the image on his card. Then each player will choose the card that most closely matches that phrase, and then everyone must guess which card the storyteller saw when he invented his brief tale. Correctly guess the storyteller's card, and you'll move ahead. Convince everyone else that your card is best, and you'll do even better. Dixit is a wonderfully simple game, playable by nearly anyone with whom you share a common language. With a fantastic range of beautiful illustrations and rules that can be understood by children and adults alike, Dixit will appeal to anyone with an imagination. It's no surprise that Dixit won the Spiel de Jahres award for game design in 2010. It is brilliant and simple, beautiful and imaginative, and fun for all. 

 FROM THE MANUFACTURER 
 The players have hands of oversized cards with various artistic pictures. The active player secretly selects one of his cards and gives a very brief description. The other players secretly select their own cards which match the description. The chosen cards are shuffled and revealed, then players vote on which was chosen by the active player.Each correct answer gives points to the guesser and the active player. Each incorrect answer gives points to the player who submitted the guessed card. However, if all of the guesses are correct -- or none of them are -- then the active player gets no points and all the other players get points.The game ends when the deck is empty. The greatest total wins the game.

Finally, avoid vision intensive games. Tile laying games aren't great for example, though there are ways one can convert them to tactile games. Games like Mysterium and Dixit are complete impossibilities though.

With hidden information games there are two things you can do. The first is just have another player (or a spectator) keep the vision impaired player informed of what hidden information the vision impaired player possesses (e.g. what cards are in their hand etc)

 That does require the vision impaired person knows braille and that you have a braille labeller (or purchase the braille kits available from 64 Ounce Games). It's also quite time consuming. 

 In the context of boardgames though you will need to develop your memory and strategies for remembering components, actions, board states etc. One thing sighted players can do to assist is to make sure they read out components in full (i.e. name and impact/ability)

I have a very close friend who lost his vision in a car cash long ago. He  used to listen to us to learn what we were playing. We whisper to him about what we have on hands and our plans. He is a good secret keeper and so we don't have problem.


We want him to join and play together so we added some dot stickers on the standard playing cards and Hanafuda cards. Traditional BGs like Monopoly is also fine because he can tell from reading dice surface, the piece, and we just read out the words on card and board for him.


But as we move on and wish to try newer games we have more difficulties in playing, like SpaceTeam, 5 minute dungeon... which are not very possible. Witcher BG is one he most wanted and we have no ideas how to make it accessible for him. 


Anyone know how to modify a BG for people who has lost their vision? Or , any BGs that are possible to play with them?  

Thanks a lot.

Modify a game for the blind?

 After choosing our settlement and road starting positions and getting into the initial turns, our friend suddenly stood up, ran to our restroom, and puked everywhere. And that was the end of Catan night.

[Welcome To]([URL REMOVED] was fun while it lasted, roll & writes! Yet as I described in my [**recent impressions of Railroad Ink Challenge**]([URL REMOVED] I’m living the law of diminishing returns within this genre of games. I used to believe that it was so cool how you could play these games with as many people as you had pads and writing utensils. Although in practice, I’ve noticed that these tend to be the quietest and least interactive games you could possibly play at a party. Low-interaction games such as roll & writes tend to take the wind out of the sails of interpersonal engagement, and I find these to be hollow forms of entertainment in group gatherings

 Both contain the chill mechanism of stopping along a one-way track to collect items or trigger effects. Jumping far ahead guarantee’s that you’ll hit your desired spot, but you’ll be skipping lots of other good options along the way and leaving them open for your opponents.

 In fact a member of our game group leaned up and whispered to me as we went for snakcs -- well I guess we can cross DIXIT of the list of game suitable for "Wilma".

  Basically I play by giving a clue that I know only one person would figure out. My son (13) and I just watched planet of the Apes, so I gave a clue that said monkeys (but the card looked like the Statue of Liberty's arm coming out of the dirt) and he guessed the right card, but the other players did not. Our friend (Wilma") played this game and did not get any points. she was super bad at the game

Dixit is fun for almost everyone -- except for Wilma and Sam.

It takes a long time, the phases are a bit confusing, and the set up is a bit clumsy (possibly because the rules didn't translate that well from Polish to English). I like it, quite a bit, but even the Dixit lovers in my playing groups don't seem keen on it. Nor the Clue players.

Inspired by u/WrestlingCheese and u/filipptralala comments on a different thread, what are some of the games that you love but 100% understand why some people dislike it?


To me it has to be **Betrayal At The House On The Hill** . I loved it and had a blast plenty of times that I played. But some people that I have introduced the game to didn’t enjoy it AT ALL. The rules of some haunts are vague at best, and some haunts are already decided by the time they start (one way or another).

What’s a game that you love but understand why others dislike?

 Because both the pieces and game board are quite smooth, the pieces very easily shift around, making it difficult to keep proper score as the bunnies advance. All this said, the game play is very fun, and I didn't find myself really caring too much about the score even thoguh pieces kept falling and sliding around. The game was a hit with my family over Christmas vacation, and everyone commented that they liked how even people who are usually "good at games" could still do well.

The game concept and card art is excellent. Other reviewers have said they prefer art from other Dixit variants better, but as a newbie to the game I thought these were great! Only criticism is with game board and pieces: (1) Game board is awkwardly long, making it difficult to everyone playing to have a good "seat" with respect to the board. Also, it is misrepresented in the current image on the product page show a square game board, but the board that gets shipped is actually a very long skinny rectangle (someone should probably correct this). (2) The bunny pieces are very unstable and fall all the time

Wonderful game!  Minor issues with board/pieces.

 With that being said, I think it was all fairly reasonable because most of these games have been played over 10 times each (even the most recent acquisitions) with the exception of Pax Pamir and Brass Birmingham because it’s harder to get those one played. I also think it was reasonable since we didn’t really spend a bunch of extra money on things, we just made the theme of gift giving holidays board games.

Hi all! I've been in the hobby for about six months now and absolutely love it, spending most of my time playing solo. In that time, I've been really careful about how much I limit my purchases. I have three games currently (**Root**, **Wingspan**, &amp; **Parks**) with one more (**Oath**) on the way and I've made a hard rule to cap my collection at 5 games max. However, it's been really hard to restrict my purchasing of board games, especially since everything I see looks so cool/new. How did you all manage that early excitement and what kind of games made their way into your collection during the first year?

What did your first year of board game purchases look like?

Bought this to play with younger kids (6 & 4). Absolutely love the concept and execution but unfortunately we just found the imagery to be a bit too unsettling. To be clear, there's nothing is overtly graphic or wrong here, but all the concepts and choice of color palette skew towards darkness and imagery that just leaves you feeling slightly uneasy. A toy shop full of frowning toys

Fun game, but dark imagery for younger kids

 But I think four is the WORST number of people to play it at. When I played it with my family (all ages) for a total of six players, we all had a BLAST! I think five would be similarly fun. I also think a large part of the fun was the specific people. My friends are much more into strategy and trivia games, with the occasional Cards Against Humanity shock-and-laugh game thrown in

Uno is one card game that needs little introduction. Invented in 1971, this game has grown into one of the most popular card games ever. Our testers can't deny its playability factor. Despite not having played since childhood, our gaming testers fell right into gameplay on the first round, a testament to this game's ease of play. We think this game is a perfect choice when appeasing the young and old players on game nights. If you need a family card game, this one will work great. We have played with players as young as six years old with success. The colorful cards keep youngsters engaged, while the speed of play keeps everyone involved and competitive. The latest version of Uno that we purchased comes with customizable wild cards, allowing you to put a new twist on an old game. It also came in a quality tin case, a nice touch.
While nostalgia is high with this game, our enthusiasm for this game lessens significantly when kids aren't around. For most of our adult testers, the joy of this game is being able to play a competitive and fun game with children. The playing field is pretty even for all ages, which is hard to find in any game, whether cards or board games. But, it just doesn't hold its weight on adults-only game nights. In such a scenario, our testers would much rather reach for a different game. We think this game has tons of value and appeal, but it is limited to families or those playing for nostalgia's sake.

 I played it as a child 30+ years ago with my grandparents and dad every summer when I visited them. Now I play it with my teenage son, my dad, and grandma. Ages 15 to 93 all sit around the table giggling like little kids every time we get to skip someone or make them draw. If the moody teenager can peel his face away from the cellphone screen long enough to enjoy a card game (with old people no less!) anyone can

We need to replace thick tiles with thin cards because thin cards are easy to carry, and because thin cards are easy to shuffle, and because thin cards have no engravings on the side that is face up to prevent from cheating by touch.

Using UNO Cards as Mahjong Cards

 - Whenever a “7” is played — the last person to hit the deck gets a 2 card penalty. - Whenever a “0” is played — the last person to hit their forehead gets a 2 card penalty. - “Same color, same suit” — they can “cut in line” and play the card to the deck. The individuals who were suppose to go all get skipped and the concession starts from the person who played the, “same color, same suit”

 They are required to pull a card from the deck until they have a card that they can play. This could mean the individual takes 1 card or has the risk of taking 16 cards.

“Power Uno Rules” Rules Written By: Rachel Elliott iam.rachelelliott@gmail.com  • The Story Behind Power Uno • Do you remember back in the days of college when you needed to study but you’d do everything but study? Yes, that’s how Power Uno was born. Two guys decided that they would rather take fun games that they grew-up with and add some more rules for fun and excitement

 - “Same color, same suit” — they can “cut in line” and play the card to the deck. The individuals who were suppose to go all get skipped and the concession starts from the person who played the, “same color, same suit”. - “+4 Wild” or “+2” — When you play a “+4 Wild” or “+2” card on top of each other, the last person who can’t play the “+4 Wild” or “+2” gets the full amount of the value of the cards. - If you play a card out of turn — 2 card penalty

Power Uno Rules

 There is enough randomness in the game, that regardless of skill you may win or lose, which, again, is great for the kids. Given that it's roughly the size of two decks of cards, it's easy to throw in a bag to take on a trip.

Classic card game, great for family fun.
