Hear 'N Seek (2004)

About this game

This is a memory game that uses ears instead of eyes. The active player has ten pairs of cards face-down in front of him. He picks up cards and listens to other players perform the sounds depicted on the side that he cannot see. With every second card picked up he either receives a negative point for drawing an unmatched pair or gets to pick up a matched pair. Play shifts to the next player once all of the cards have been picked up.

Does it fit your group?

• Group size. Works with 2 to 6.
• 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 5 and up. That rates the rules rather than the artwork, so judge the box yourself for younger players.
