MOW (2008)

About this game

Cows and flies are the main actors in Mow, Bruno Cathala's latest card game. Published by Hurrican and released at the 2008 Essen Game Fair, Mow is a simple card-game for 2-5 players and is illustrated by Sandra Tagliabue. Players will gather points by creating a herd, but at the same time they have to avoid getting too many flies, or else their total score will be heavily reduced. Mow is exclusively published by Hurrican, all printings of Mow are from Hurrican and distributed by other companies

Does it fit your group?

• Group size. Works with 2 to 10.
• Rules load. At 1.1/5 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.
