Circus Grandioso (2012)

About this game

Game description from the publisher In Circus Grandioso, players combine forces to create an unbelievably "pyramid of acrobatic animals". Whoever plays the topmost card on the pyramid gets the Show Master token – but only so long as no other player can play a card higher up the pyramid. Whoever holds the Show Master token at the end of the game wins. The cards can also be used to play a solitaire game.

Does it fit your group?

• Group size. Works with 1 to 4. It has a designed solo mode.
• Rules load. At 1.2/5 this is a light game — explain it in a few minutes, good for a table that has not played much.
• Age. The publisher suggests 8 and up. That rates the rules rather than the artwork, so judge the box yourself for younger players.
