Mapominoes: Africa (2009)

About this game

It's like dominoes but with maps, as you build a continental map by connecting countries that share a common border. Stay one step ahead of your opponents, as you race to be the first player to play all your country cards within the confines of your available table space, and win the game. Can be combined with other games in the Series: Mapominoes family to create a larger game.

Does it fit your group?

• Group size. Works with 2 to 5.
• Rules load. At 2.0/5 this is a mid-weight game — expect a proper rules explanation before you start.
• Age. The publisher suggests 8 and up. That rates the rules rather than the artwork, so judge the box yourself for younger players.
