DuCo (2013)

About this game

In DuCo, players score points by playing cards so that colored icons lie next to one another. If you match color or shape, you score; match both, and you score more; match special symbols, and the bonus points will roll in. Some icons will match any color or shape, giving you more opportunities to score. The options for where to play grow each turn, and the first player to reach 50 points wins! Too simple for a veteran BGG user? Don't count on it until you've tried the alternative game modes that adds new different strategic elements to the color-matching madness!

Does it fit your group?

• Group size. Works with 1 to 5. It has a designed solo mode.
• Rules load. At 1.6/5 this is a light game — explain it in a few minutes, good for a table that has not played much.
• Age. The publisher suggests 7 and up. That rates the rules rather than the artwork, so judge the box yourself for younger players.
