Globalissimo (2008)

About this game

In this geography-game, dates and facts about countries are compared. Every turn, (up to) 6 cards are placed face up, each showing the flag of a country. Another card defines the deciding category - like population, gross national product etc. One after another, players now put a marker on a single country, simultaneously guessing how the country will rank compared to the other 5. The more accurate you guess, the more victory points you get.

Does it fit your group?

• Group size. Works with 2 to 6.
• Rules load. At 1.4/5 this is a light game — explain it in a few minutes, good for a table that has not played much.
• Age. The publisher suggests 12 and up. That rates the rules rather than the artwork, so judge the box yourself for younger players.
