Layers (2018)

About this game

Layers is a pattern-matching game that requires players to turn, flip, and overlap a set of five layers to complete the pattern shown on a mission card. The faster you complete the pattern, the higher your score will be. With a variety of levels, you can try to match different patterns on the mission cards using 3 layers up to 5 layers. Each layer has an unique shape and the colors are different in the front and back, so you must be careful as you overlap different layers into one pattern. Complete the pattern quicker than the others to gain more points and win the game! A new game designed by Dave Choi and Yohan Goh, the designers of Battle Fold and Fold-it, presents an unique style of puzzle-solving game with colorful patterns that will make you feel like an artist.

Does it fit your group?

• Group size. Works with 1 to 4. It has a designed solo mode.
• Rules load. At 1.0/5 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.
